In reply to Mark's request I can confirm that Anglia Polytechnic
University have a printing
system that can print lines straight and curved, Braille numbers and
letters. If you look at our web site
www.enterprise.anglia.ac.uk/access/tact.html it will show you what we
have achieved so far. Also last month we were awarded a research grant
of £680,000 from the EPSRC to research tactile maps and signs. If you
want further information please contact John Powell at APU or fill in
the
response form on our web site.
