- WG-92-04: (SI-TWG) --- Special Interest TWG
-

-

-
- The annual TUG meeting held in Portland at the end of July 92
- decided to form a special interest working group to address the
- possible advantages in using TeX to make documents more accessible to
- the disabled.
-
- I would like to invite people interested in this area to join this
- group at this time. In the initial phase, I see a need to gather
- information about any relevant ongoing work in this area.
-
- To give a taste of what I mean by ongoing work, I found a Braille.sty
- and Braille.tfm while wandering around the European archives, and so I
- feel that there might be others out there who have already addressed
- some of the questions.
-
- Looking forward to hearing from you,
-
