摘要
We are developing a graphics editor to easily draw Brailleembedded tactile graphics for scientific documents including mathematical expressions with Infty specialized system. Each graphics embedded in a document is cut out and cliaracters oil the graphics are recognized by I nftyli,eader. The recognized graphics can be edited with this graphics editor, which is based oil scalable vector graphics. Since, in the editor, ordinary texts and inatheniatical expressions on tile recognized graphics are presented by hiftylEditor, users ( an easily edit them with its input interface. After completing the edit process, all texts and inathernatical expressions are automatically translated into Braille by our original Braille translator, hiftyBraille. Then, the edited graphics is output as an ENIF file. Ernbossing out, the ENIF file, users even who do not; know Braille codes can get a Braille-enibedded tactile graphics.
