[Blindmath] Using Latex-Access Jaws Script with pdf and ppt files

[Jose Tamayo]

Ask your professor if he will use MathType?  It has all the capabilities,
and more, as the one he is using.

Hello all,
This is quote from my teacher's email explaining how he write equations. 
Could anyone have a solusion for this. Maybe I think I should convert ppt to
word, then convert to latex, is it ok? So what program can do it? And if
nayone have a solusion, please let me know.
Quote:
I have used Microsoft Equation to prepare lectures, for example I use Power
Point, then if I need to put an equation, I click on "insert, object" then
choose "Microsoft Equation".

I do not use latex as it is not convenient to make animations, colors,
changes of font, etc...

 What kind of reader you are using? so I may figure out how to help you.
Quote end.
