Frequently asked questions

Does it support full Grade 2 Braille contractions?

Base character-for-character (Grade 1) Braille conversion is supported; Grade 2 uses contracted shorthand for common words and letter combinations, which is a more complex, locale-specific standard beyond simple character mapping.

Is this the same as an actual embossed Braille display?

No — this converts to and from the Unicode Braille pattern characters used to represent Braille digitally in text, not a physical embossing format.

Can I use the converted Braille characters in a document?

Yes — the Unicode Braille characters can be copied into any text field, though they display correctly only where Braille Unicode glyphs are supported by the font.
