If it has been scanned, then it is already in a format like DOCX or Open
Book format or something similar.
For that, you should use that software to convert to plain text.
You can then likely use this software to convert it to BRF for use on a
notetaker or Braille display.

Hi,

Can this software be used to convert a braille book that was scanned, to
text?

Richard,
I went to APH to find that translation program, but which of the many
links do I use to find it?
I tried a couple links there and did not find any software available for
download.
Thanks.

If money is not an issue, the best is Duxbury, at somewhere around $500
or $600.
I use Braille Blaster, which is free from American Printing House for the
blind.

Hi. I am looking for advice as to the best Braille translation software.
I want to create my own grade two brf files from text files. What is the
best software I can use with Windows 10 and JAWS?

Thank you.
