Computerized braille typesetting: another view of mark-up standards
R. Arrabito, Helmut Jürgensen · 1988
this paper we discuss the feasibility of a direct translation of typesetter input into Braille output with special emphasis on scientific and mathematical text. To do so we use the T E X computer typesetting system as a paradigm; however, the essence of our conclusions is true for other systems too. We briefly describe the present state of a related implementation project. Our study derives several recommendations concerning the standards for mark-up languages and for Braille encodings. They strongly support the development of "semantic" mark-up.
