VP Columbia Embosser 

Owner's Manual 

 

 

Congratulations  on  purchasing  a  VP  Columbia  Braille  and  tactile  graphics  embosser!   This  manual  will 
introduce you to basic information regarding your new embosser. 

This embosser provides double sided embossing for Braille text with capabilities to include single sided 
tactile graphics. 

ViewPlus  embossers  use  the  standard  Windows  printer  driver  to  mix  text  and graphics  in mainstream 
Windows  software  like  Word  and  Excel.  Use  the  computer  to  adjust  settings  and  preferences.  Print 
documents exactly how they appear on the screen. 

ViewPlus  embossers  are  compatible  to  third  party  products  like  Duxbury  and  RTFC  braille  translation 
software and they can be used to print Braille from Braille note takers. 

Use  the  Tiger  Software  Suite  to  take  braille  translation  and  tactile  graphics  to  a  new  level.  The  Tiger 
Formatter  is  a  Microsoft  add-in  that  gives  you  advanced  tools  for  translation  and  embossing.  Tiger 
Designer enables basic editing of documents for quick drawing and braille needs. Translator serves as a 
basic translation tool for almost any Windows software- including PowerPoint and Corel Draw.
