[Blindmath] Math on Linux

[Michael Whapples]

Your right about inftyreader being able to convert from PDF to LaTeX but 
you should be aware that the results may or may not be good as it is 
using optical character recognition and so may make errors depending on 
fonts, etc.

As for an alternative on linux, I am not aware of one.
