Harvey: For what it's worth, I am currently using Duxbury version 11.2SR4, and it does give me the choice between traditional grade 2 Braille and UEB. For now, I'm sticking to traditional grade II. Braille, and will save learning UEB as a possible retirement project on down the road. I just don't have the time to try to master UEB right now.

I would like to at least have the option of using one sided or versa point printing, but this one doesn't have that option. The only way I would consider updating Duxbury is if newer updates offered the choice of traditional grade 2 or UEB Braille. I think those of us older blind people should be given that choice. I hate UEB Braille.

I use the Duxbury Braille Translator, and recently brought it up to date. I haven't used this setup in Windows 10 yet, but it should work. Beware of USB-to-serial adapters, however. I have been using 3 RadioShack Gigaware adapters: one for FT950 control, one for rotor control and one for driving the braille embosser. I intended to make a newer computer which runs Windows 10 my logging computer. But the USB-to-serial drivers for devices which contain a chipset from Prolific were updated, starting at Windows 8.1, such that adapters like mine which happen to have fake Prolific chips will not work in Windows 8 or 10. Cables from more reputable folks like FTDI should still work. 73, Lloyd Rasmussen, W3IUU, Kensington, MD
