BrailleTranslator.org is a simple way to convert text to braille notation. We support nearly all Grade Two braille contractions. You get the braille as text, as a BRF file for braille embossers and as images (SVG and PNG, also mirrored for punching the dots by hand).
1 or 2 specifies the Grade. 1 for uncontracted and 2 for contracted Braille (if available). Font size for image. Value between 10 and 200.
Lines are broken between words in all results (text, BRF file, images); the BRF file also gets page breaks. Most embossers support 34–37 cells per line and 25–28 lines per page.

Please consider that a 100% correct braille translation can only be done by a human, as this requires an understanding of the text content. Some Grade 2 Contractions require a text understanding that a machine can't have. For example, the combination "wh" can be replaced by one character in grade 2, but not when the word is combined of two words. So a(wh)ile is OK, but ra(wh)ide is not.

Processing, please wait.
