I could have sworn we had a braille font in DataCad but can't seem to find it. What is everyone else using? Thank you.

If needed I usually use a TTF, but looking back in my archives I have one called BRAILLE1.CHR. I'm not sure where I came across it . I'll PM you.

Dan - how are you using Braille in DataCAD? For a sign in a drawing? If so, what I did was to look up the Braille, and draw the dots as circles.

Loaded the font, which once you know how to do is ridiculously easy (Microsoft was NO help on that one) and yes we are using it for ADA signs. Works like a charm. Now I just have to learn how to read braille! :?

Did you use the CHR or a TTF?

It's a TTF. Braille normal is the name.
