The majority of Braille embossers use continuous (tractor feed) Braille paper. This method of embossing is considered by many to be the most reliable and consistent method of Brailling, as it minimizes errors associated with feeding paper into the embosser.

The tractor feed format has .5” perforations on each side that align with the Braille embosser. Once the paper is embossed, these ½” perforations are torn off from each side. The standard finished Braille Paper sizes (once you tear off the tractor feed edges) are 8.5”×11” and 11×11.5”, respectively.

ATC offers both sizes in either plain or 19-Hole pre-punched formats. The binding holes are punched on the left side and are to be used with standard binding rings. Lastly, as this paper is continuous, the user must separate the individual sheets after being Brailled. This is typically done by hand, or by using a burster.
