Hello,

Thank you for all the help on the document format with screen readers.

For trying to make braille appear on a refreshable braille display, which kind of format and screenreader is the best way to go? Right now, I use a focus 14 and a 32 cell braille note taker that is compatible with JAWS when used as a refreshable braille display.

Thank you,
Nicholas
