Both Braille input and output have three modes starting with iOS 8. There's
contracted, uncontracted, and eight-dot. With a .brf file, you should use
8-dot, since these files are all upper-case.
With your capitalization example, it looks like you're using Unified English
Braille. If you want
You can also read these files using Bard if you choose. Often, Bard will show
up as a choice in the open in menu.

Set your braille display to 8-dot braille output with dots 2 3 6 space. Make
sure you are not in contracted braille mode. Now, you will be able to read the
file in any of the file viewing apps.

So I made sure my display was in un-contracted, 8-dot mode and loaded one
file in several programs, including Bard. But it didn't look like good
Braille. For example, it contained words followed by definitions. So here
is how it would look.

I am wondering how one can read .brf files using the iPhone and a
Braille display. These are not files from Bard, but are other files in
a .brf format. Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

You will need a Braille display to read these files on your device. If you're
in the US, Bard Mobile works great. It has very specific keystrokes to use for
finding your place in a book and navigating, so using the manual is highly
recommended. I know there are other apps that will do this, but

Hi Teresa,
I'm confused. What I think you said is that it is possible to read brf files if
you first convert them to epub for importation into iBooks. How the heck do you

Hi, Mary,
IOS has a built[in translator to convert text into Grade Two Braille. As an
aside, it does not have a back-translation program to convert brf files into

A brf file is actually a plain ASCII text file with normal characters that
represent Braille. There is no special
