[NABS-L] Chinese braille typing

[sarah at sarahblakelarose.com]

Hi, Amy.
In order to input braille characters from another language, back translation has to be supported from that language in LibLouis. If you are using JAWS with NVDA, I suggest installing a Mandarin keyboard on your computer and typing on your PC.

Hello Cassandra,
I am going to study Mandarin. I am using a focus 40 and NVDA and also Jaws .
I can get NVDA to show me the Chinese braille but I cannot use my focus 40 to input braille. Thank you very much fore the Chinese Jaws link, I actually saw it when I did my research. I am just trying to safe some money.  As you know blindness  Technology is very expensive. 
Thank you very much!!
Amy

Hello Amy,

I study Japanese and NVDA has a Japanese edition. I could not find the same in Chinese. I did however, find this:

 Maybe this could help you? Are you using Mandarin or Cantonese? I will see what else I can find.

Sincerely,
