eBraille 1.0 has Launched!


A digital reading format for braille publications, eBraille focuses on adapting braille for reading in refreshable braille displays with different line lengths. Using an EPUB 3-compatible file set based on the Open Web Platform — using technologies such as XHTML and CSS — to encode braille in semantically enhanced markup and allow it to adapt to the different capabilities of braille reading devices. The file set is designed for both packaged distribution to end users and deployment to the web for online and downloadable reading.

Composed of 91 people throughout the blindness or low vision field, the eBraille Working Group represented more than 50 organizations in 16 different countries.
