What Counts as Writing
Question
Hello Rabbi,
I would like to clarify the Rabbi's view regarding Braille script: is it considered writing? And likewise, what is the status of pixels—are they considered writing?
With blessings in Torah study
Answer
I didn't understand your question about pixels. What do you mean by pixels in this context?
As far as I understand, Braille is writing in every respect. Why not? How is it different from any other form of writing?
