I can't help you with nwc too much. I just know that there is a nwc2xml 
converter from Noteworthy Compser to MusicXML available:
http://www.geocities.com/juria90/nwc.html
- From MusicXML you can then directly convert to braille using FreeDots:
http://delysid.org/freedots.html

Unfortunately, the nwc2ly converter has some issues and does not always 
produce entirely correct MusicXML... One particular problem is that the 
beaming of 8th notes is broken. 
I don't know if that has an effect on the Braille conversion later on or 
if the freedots authors are aware of them and work around the problems.

Cheers,
Reinhold
