printed text Explanation: regular/normal print also seem fine. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 25 mins (2016-09-22 12:33:25 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "A collection of children's books with both braille and printed text tours of our libraries." (http://www.croydonlibraries.com/library-services/books-and-r... ) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 26 mins (2016-09-22 12:34:04 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Each key on the pad has both Braille and printed text labels designed to indicate function and a related shape to help the voter determine its use." (https://www.verifiedvoting.org/resources/voting-equipment/es... ) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 27 mins (2016-09-22 12:35:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Thermoforming (vacuum forming) is the process of generating a tactile document from pre-tooled dyes. A large metal dye is molded into the shape of the document, which can include both Braille and printed text, line graphics and multi-tiered graphics." (https://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~cpower/pubs/2010UAISPowerJu... ) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 57 mins (2016-09-22 13:04:59 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Wetenswaardigheden[bewerken] Het tegengestelde van braille - een gedrukte of geschreven tekst die voor ziende mensen leesbaar is - wordt door blinden "zwartschrift" of "zwartdruk" genoemd." (https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille ) ***************************** "Although it is possible to transcribe print by simply substituting the equivalent braille character for its printed equivalent, in English such a character-by-character transcription (known as uncontracted braille) is only used by beginners. Braille characters are much larger than their printed equivalents, and the standard 11" by 11.5" (28 cm × 30 cm) page has room for only 25 lines of 43 characters. [...] Since the various braille alphabets originated as transcription codes of printed writing systems, the mappings (sets of character designations) vary from language to language. [...] The lines of horizontal braille text are separated by a space, much like visible printed text, so that the dots of one line can be differentiated from the braille text above and below. Different assignments of braille codes (or code pages) are used to map the character sets of different printed scripts to the six-bit cells." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille ) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2016-09-22 14:56:08 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- a few refs, all from 100% reputable, well written ENG sources, showing that it is also just referred to as "print": ***************************** "Abstract This study compared a number of outcomes for congenitally legally blind adults who learned to read braille or print as their original reading medium. It was found that those who learned to read using braille had higher employment rates and educational levels, were more financially self-sufficient, and spent more time reading than did those who learned to read using print." (http://mountbattenbrailler.com/Docs/papers/Ryles_study.pdf ) ***************************** "What is Dual Media? Dual Media refers to the use of both print and braille simultaneously as modes for reading and writing. In some cases, print and braille are both taught from the beginning, while in other cases print readers are taught braille later in their educational careers. How should a decision be made whether to use print or braille or both?" (http://www.pathstoliteracy.org/dual-media ) ***************************** "What about large print? Large print is useful for people with low vision, whereas braille is essential for people with little or no vision. We produce large print documents using 18- to 24-point fonts and can emboss the same text in braille, right over the print, so that both remain readable. In this way, you can serve more visually-impaired people." (https://www.nbp.org/ic/nbp/business/faq.html ) ***************************** "FROM BRAILLE TO PRINT: THE STORY OF FUAZ For educational purposes, individuals who are blind are so severely impaired they must learn to read Braille or use aural methods. Educators often refer to those individuals who can read print, even if they need magnifying devices or largeprint books, as having low vision. (page 341) From my experience of teaching students with visual impairment in two secondary schools in Malaysia, and from my visits to schools during practicum supervision, I have observed that a significant number of students using Braille seem to have sufficient vision to read print.
