[NFB-Muslims] Mada Center in Qatar: Unified Arabic Braille resources

[Donald Winiecki]

Apologies!

It appears that my BRF file attachment was not distributed to the listserv.

Here is a URL
<https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fSd-fpObGaxVSFsHBzF3ASu6729fIda_/view?usp=share_link>
from which you can download the BRF file of Unified Arabic Braille symbols
that I produced for the University of San Francisco and blind students in
their Arabic language courses. The file is formatted for 40-cell lines, and
according to North American standards for page layout. This set of
standards includes a bunch of "front matter" pages that tell about the
document and its source(s).

I am happy to answer questions about this file or about Arabic braille in
general.

Best,

DON WINIECKI
