[humanser] Diagnostic assessments

[JD Townsend]

Hi:

If you have a scanner your problems are solved.

It has been my practice for decades to scan forms, such as your caapé 5, 
have the scanner translate it into a Word or Notepad document, then move it 
to my braillenote.  It takes a few minutes, but is relatively easy.

It does take a program such as OpenBook or Kurtzweil and a braille 
notetaker;  but, for me it has been one of the smoother fits.

Greetings,


Could you get someone -- say, from your state's blindness services
agency -- to create a fillable Word document for you? They could label
the questions; you could fill in the template and print it.
