It's called braile.

The braille system, devised in 1821 by Louis Braille, is a method that is widely used by blind people to read and write. Each braille character or "cell" is made up of six dot positions, arranged in a rectangle containing two columns of three dots each. A dot may be raised at any of the six positions to form sixty-four combinations, counting the space in which no dots are raised. For reference purposes, a particular combination may be described by naming the positions where dots are raised, the positions being universally numbered 1 through 3 from top to bottom on the left, and 4 through 6 from top to bottom on the right. For example, dots 1-3-4 would describe a cell with three dots raised, at the top and bottom in the left column and on top of the right column (ie the letter 'm').

Is this a trick question? Deaf people do not used raised prints. Blind people used raised 'indentations' to "read". Yes, it's called Braille!

Deaf or hard of hearing people use American sign Language to communicate, unless they are also visually impaired then they might use braille.
And not all visually impaired or blind people read braille, younger children and young adults were taught it in school. However older people depending on the amount of vision they had as children and teenagers may have never used braille. They use magnification devices and now have screen readers which will read for them.

This is Religion and Spirituality?
Braille, for the blind. Print for deaf people is called "print".

You mean what is the raised print blind people use...braille. Deaf individuals can read just not hear.

Deaf people don't use raised print. They use sign-language.
Blind people use braille.

Deaf people? Why would they need raised text?

Its called braille and that is for blind people. Deaf people can read, and if your are that unintelligent perhaps you should step in line for the testing of that new anti-stupidity pill that is being manufactured.
