Hi Dennis,

 

If you have an Index Everest V4 you can enable the raised letter mode by
preceding your text with an Escape character followed by ASCII 129 (ü). This
is a legacy mode from earlier models and I don’t think it is documented in
the current manual. Any text sent to the embosser after this sequence will
be embossed as raised letters. You can terminate this mode, and return to
braille, by repeating the sequence.

 

It is possible to embed this code in DBT as a job header but there would be
little point if you want plain text.

 

The attached file, (if the system lets it through), will allow you to just
substitute the text you want to emboss. If not, or if you want any more info
please contact me off list,

 

Regards,

 

Nigel Herring

Sorry I am late to this show.

One easy way to have “tactile” embossed letters along with or without
braille from a braille embosser is via the free 

QUICK TAC program.  You can also save Quick Tac files and insert them as a
graphic into DBT WIN files.

I know the machine with swell paper but is it possible to create the same
result with brailledots with my embosser (Index Everest D V4)?

 

When you print an help-document the embosser is printing the same kind of
text I want to create by myself, so the embosser has the possibility to do
it.

In theory, and in practice, yes.

 

However, first you would need to enlarge the print text, and then print on
to something called “swell paper”.  That then needs to be passed through a
special machine which would raise the inked parts such that you could then
feel the shape of the letters.

 

Did you have a special purpose in mind?

Hi all,

 

is it possible to print (normal) text on a way that you can feel them, not
in braille?

 

Sorry I'm not so clear but I don't know how to say it in English.

 

Is Relief the right word?

 

Kind regards,


Met vriendelijke groet,
