With Simbraille, is easier to see the where the dots are placed in the 6-dot cell. It may be used to teach about dot placement.
If you typed Braille with Perky Duck, you can copy and paste it into a Word Editor, like Microsoft Word. Then you just change the font to be this font, Unicode Braille Font. 16 pt font size is recommended.
You can also take text, copy and paste it into an online braille translator, and take that brailled text, and use that text in Microsoft Word. Then change the font type.
You might need to adjust height spacing if it's too cramped. In Microsoft Office, you can right click, and go to Paragraph, and change the Line spacing to 2. That would make it easier to read.
You may adjust margins to give more space as well.

If you're producing print-braille materials, then you can use this braille font alongside a print font, add outlines of pictures, diagrams, and etc., to your documents.
Then documents can be printed on swell paper to form tactile graphics.

I needed a micro font, something that could be done in the tiniest scale, and braille came to mind. it is decipherable, making it good for textures on signs or glyths in pixel art.
SHARE and USE as you wish, its just braille i hold no creative rule over this, literally anyone can make this exactly the same in 3 minutes or so, like i did.
This font combines two simple ideas and puts them together. Braille and color theory.
I had a long time been holding on to this font (about 2 years) but decided that maybe someone out there would like it. Its complicated, in a way, but can end up being the most compressed "barcode" I have ever seen. (With the average letter taking up approximately 2 pixels when used in its "second form" but we will get into that later.
As with many of my fonts, is rooted in braille. So a knowledge in braille is neccesary. (Braille is very very easy to learn)
So heres the nuts and bolts. Lets take a 3 letter word in braille, say, "ice"
o| oo| o
o | | o
i c e
in of itself it takes three braille spots, but, what if we were to use color theory to compress it?
the first letter would be red, the second in yellow, the third in blue? You could have them occupy the same place and have no loss of information! Anywhere red overlapped the yellow, it would be orange, anywhere yellow overlapped blue it would be green! etc.
so, "Ice" could now be expressed as
green, orange
red, blue
The word "Ice" is conveyed in a 2x2 packet of colored pixels!
Which brings me to my font. "Rybian" (a play on words of "RedYellowBlue-ian" is a colorless way of expressing that same form.
red is a horizontal line
yellow is a circle
blue is a verticle line
so, logically, orange would be a circle with a horizontal line in it
green would be a circle with a verticle line in it
purple would be a verticle and horizontal line
