Abstract

Imagine a document you want to read is available on disk. The publisher can readily supply it to you with no concern for computer system compatibility. If the publisher doesn't happen to have your brand of computer, they can send it to you over the phone lines without losing any of its format. Once you get it, the format is immediately obvious. You can identify all the headings, you can instantly find the tables and lists, and you have no doubts about italics or other font changes. If you want a braille edition, you don't have to worry about stripping out control characters or changing some word processor's commands to those appropriate for braille. If you're using a large print display system, you needn't worry about how the text is broken into lines.
