[nabs-l] Braille Highlighters?

[Ashley Bramlett]

Brandon,
I wish there was a braille highlighter too.
What I suggest is use textured dots from APH or ILA.
Have one type of dot to start your highlight and another to finish.
another idea is use a piece of thin tape such as graphic art tape sold at 
office supply stores.

If your fingers can feel the difference other ideas are:
1. use a crayon under the text you want to highlight.
2. use a pencil and you can feel the indents of the pencil
3. use a ball point pin under the text.
4. making raised lines with the raised line kit might work if you can afford 
it.
hth,
Ashley

Hello,
I am wondering if any kind of Braille highlighter has been invented yet?
Something that could change the texture of the page while still keeping the
Braille readable?
This has been something that all my teachers have been telling me to do with
my Braille books and music, as of now it is either write notes in another
device that may crash, or put not really accurate dots that can fall off on
the spot I want to mark. (Not to menschen that becomes a lot of dots after a
while).
So if anyone has ever encountered a Braille highlighter please let me know!
Thank you,

Brandon Keith Biggs
