[Nfb-krafters-korner] making pictures with braille writer

[Susan Ford]

    No, if you use the s, wh, ar, or gh signs, you fill in better than with 
the st or ch signs.  For those who don't know Braille, this is dots 2-3-4, 
dots 3-4-5, dots 1-2-6, or dots 1-5-6.  That will fill the height that you 
don't have with the i or e.
