The lady who did the Braillables was Marie Porter, at the Guild for the Blind in Chicago. After
Googling for a minute I found this, from an old issue of the Braille Monitor:

Hi,
There are ways. This is an area, I think, that hasn't been investigated
enough
some ideas
1. Braillables. Marie Potter wrote and illustrated Braille books. Her
ideas are geat. She published how tos on how to do this using a Perkins.
So I would think if one could do it with a Perkins it should work Ok with
Duxburry. Marie is blind.
2.Use known pictures files and insert them into the Duxburry document
3. Creating graphics could also be dependent on the external equipment
attatched to your PC. eg embosser used.
Just some ideas.
Best,
Lisa
