Hi Lisette,
The paper we're using for the job is thicker than normal printing paper but
not quite as thick as Braille paper. Also, we're using a specific type of
printer that can take quite thick paper, because we often print business
cards and glossy covers. So yes, the same sheet of paper goes through the
printer and the embosser, but it's not technically Braille paper.
Also, in this particular case it didn't matter if the Braille lined up with
the print. The text consists of a heading and a couple of paragraphs giving
instructions, and then another sheet with a list of initials and names on
it. The print basically has to be there so that the sighted people
distributing the papers know what they are and exactly what they say.
When we do need to have Braille lined up exactly with print we have a
sighted person here who does it and then checks it with a blind reader to
make sure the Braille is correct. I don't know the process she uses to get
it to line up--I think it depends on what the text is.
Hope this answers your questions,
Cheers,
Nadine.

Hi Nadine
Forgive me, but I'm just curious. Were you putting braille paper in the ink
printer and then putting that same sheet in the embosser? And how *did* you
get it to line up. Sounds very fiddly to me. Or is there an official and
proper way to do it. Just wondered.

Hi all,
We managed to solve the problem--all it was was that I didn't have the
correct printer selected.
Cheers,
Nadine.
