Our
original TranSend has been helping Braille and print readers "connect the
dots" (Braille dots, that is) with print text for the last few years. Now
with TranSend LT, it's easier than ever to put Braille and print together
line by line on the same page.
Braille
and print together on a page has long been the dream of parents of
blind children, agencies serving blind clients, schools with blind students,
Braille transcriptionists, and many others. Since we introduced our original
TranSend several years ago, we've been constantly surprised by the new
and different projects people created with it--many we'd never even thought
of ourselves. However, we kept hearing something else, too: "Make
it easier to set up and use!"
We
listened, and new TranSend LT has all the power--and more of the
original TranSend yet is as easy to use as an ATM machine. As always,
the entire TranSend LT system includes a sturdy Epson dot matrix printer
and your choice of Romeo RB-25, Romeo 40, ET, Juliet Classic, Juliet PRO,
Juliet PRO 60, BookMaker or Braille Express embossers.
New,
speedier speech keeps you on track as the voice and screen prompts
lead you quickly and clearly through a few simple choices...and let you
change your mind without "starting all over" at every step. As few as
five keystrokes will have you producing your choice of Braille, large
or small print, or a combination of Braille and print. TranSend LT uses
simple text files, easily created by virtually all popular word processing
programs.
How
Easy is TranSend LT? Judge for Yourself!
Step
1: Prepare text files using your favorite word processor or Braille notetaker.
Step
2: Plug in your computer or Braille notetaker on the left side of TranSend
LT. Plug in the Epson printer and your Braille embosser on right side.

Step
3: Power everything up--TranSend LT last. Put paper in the printer or embosser.
Step
4: Select the kind of document you want to make--Braille, print, or Braille
and print in combination--from the TranSend LT's menu. Copy your file from
your computer or Braille notetaker. Your document prints or Brailles. TranSend
LT already "knows" (using its preset formats) how to produce documents
that will fit perfectly on Braille paper. Print/Braille combination documents
print first and Braille second--you just move the paper when TranSend LT
prompts you.
That's
all it takes to create one-of-a-kind menus, memos, reports, syllabi, lessons,
children's books, recipes, price lists, and other useful documents--for
all the readers you serve.
