 DotsPlus®



For those having difficulties with traditional Braille math, many find DotsPlus® to be a great alternative.

Spatial Braille math (Braille math that adopts the same structure as visual math) can be taught by anyone regardless of their knowledge of Braille, or lack thereof.

Anyone using mainstream Windows software can create 100% accurate Braille math in minutes. Even use pre-existing math documents.

DotsPlus® is a tactile font that displays in visual print form on a computer screen or document printed in ink. Use DotsPlus® to print spatial math, or anything else from a computer screen.
