SUPPLIES:
BANA Guide to Tactile Graphics
- Use Braille 29 font to hold your place
- Under View, click Gridlines for even placement/spacing
- Use ASCII chart when you need to update braille on an image
- Use Microsoft Paint for the few things you can’t manage in Microsoft Word-then import
- Save word documents as 97-2003 so that you can use the select/group feature
- Remember Ctrl+d will duplicate any drawn object selected
- Ctrl+d can duplicate sets of objects, as well–they don’t even have to be grouped
- Remember to ALWAYS save before translating
- Feel free to avoid translating by using Braille 29 font
- Work from the outside in–start with text boxes filled with Braille 29, and arrange them before other features
- Remember that you can remove the outline of a text box when you no longer need it, for stylistic reasons
