Abstract for the International Conference on Tactile Diagrams

Tiger - the World's First 3 Dimensional Windows®
Embosser

The Tiger Tactile Graphics
and Braille Embosser now embosses using Variable-Height Punching, giving the user
vast flexibility combining multi-color graphics with braille for use in tactile
documents. Tiger interprets the color spectrum as varying punch depths. The darker
a color, the deeper Tiger punches. I will describe briefly how one can capture
Windows clip art, web graphics, etc, import into Word, add labels, and print on
Tiger. Making good tactile graphics is no longer a black art. It's now something
that any competent Windows computer user can do easily.
