Print Braille at Real Size
Made for names
Check Braille at real size with true dot and cell spacing, then print it.
For learning and casual use. For official or legal documents, ask a Braille expert to check the result.
Dot view
Every Braille cell, drawn dot by dot.
Real size
Cells at about real Braille size (dot 1.5 mm, cell 6.2 mm wide). Screens vary, so use Print at 100% scale for the exact size.
Dot pad
Tap dots, then add the cell. Click the pad first to use keys: F D S = dots 1–3, J K L = dots 4–6, Space = add.
Practice
Which letter is this cell? Build a streak.
Braille art and bio
Turn a photo or logo into dotted art, or style your Braille name for a bio. This art uses 8-dot Unicode, so it is art, not real 6-dot Braille. Some apps show boxes or blanks for these characters, so test in the app first.
Daily challenge
One new word each day, the same for everyone. Keep your streak going.

About this generator
Braille is read by touch, so size matters. The real size view draws your Braille with the dot size and cell spacing of standard Braille and lets you print it at 100 percent scale, which is useful for checking a layout or making a template. Printing on paper gives a flat picture, not raised dots, so use it for design and checking, not for touch reading.

Frequently asked questions
- Does printing make raised dots?
- No. A normal printer prints a flat picture. Raised dots need an embosser, a swell-paper printer or a 3D printer.
- What is the spacing between cells?
- The real size view uses a cell width of about 6.2 millimetres, with 1.5 millimetre dots, for standard Braille.
- Why must I print at 100 percent?
- Any scaling changes the dot size, so the printout would no longer be real size.
