I've used QuickTac and incorporated it within the Braille document using
Duxbury.  It can be done.

Has anyone been using the freeware from Duxbury Quicktac 4.0? It allows
you
to draw or import and emboss tactile images. Any comments? Tips?

The geometric figures would have to be done using a different machine in
order to make them as raised line drawings or "tactile graphics".  Many
people use a computer program to make the graphics but they are embossed
using the same printer as the text.  Some people use special machines
and
some do the tactile graphics by hand and reproduce them using a
Thermoform
machine.
