getting started with Liblouis

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings!


I'm trying to find out how to use Liblouis to translate documents from print to Braille.  Specifically, my wife would like me to find out how to translate Russian documents into Braille ones.  At the moment, though, I haven't yet learned a command to run for translating anything:  the Liblouis documentation looks to have a lot of useful material, but I could find nothing about running a command, with whatever arguments and options I might need, to create a Braille output file from a print input file.


I read about a command called file2brl, apparently part of a program called Liblouisutdml, but that program's not on my system even though Liblouis itself is.


So far searching the net has provided no wisdom for what I think I need at this beginning point.  I'd be grateful if somebody can point me to good information that I have missed so far.


I stress that, although my goal is to help my wife get some Russian Braille so that she can perhaps return to the study of something that was her passion in academia, I need right now to start with the very basics of even creating English Braille files from documents I have.


I hope I've asked my questions in the right way.


Thanks for any information.


Best!

Al
