braille

Question

I’ve been using a competing vector program for creating braille signage and wondered if there was any plans on having this be something Illustrator or Indesign could incorporate natively so that I can stop using the other program entirely?

The workflow currently with adobe products is:

go to some conversion web page like brailletranslator.org
paste text in for the conversion, copy results
go back into my Indesign doc using a braille font with a CA Standard paragraph style (that I’ve created)

This works for making 1-10 signs, but I’d prefer to have this be something I was able to merge from a CSV file as we typically need to create 100 individual signs at a time--which the competing program will also not do. It does however have a TEXT TO BRAILLE and BRAILLE TO TEXT option from the TEXT menu and a panel that looks a little like this:

​@Dave Creamer of IDEAS Yes, use the standard braile fonts at size 10mm font size (28.346 pt) and 10mm leading as is pretty much standard anywhere I’ve seen or used it.Most braille systems have a braille grid that you align to, so this works well.
