Hi Ian,
Ironically I went to Zimbabwe back in 1995 where the Dorothy Duncan
Braille Library set a Guinness Book of Records record for producing a
braille book, which was ready at the same time as the print version.
Ironically, that record still stands, and in fact has never even been
challenged.
George.
