[Blindmath] Typing in Nemeth Braille

[Neil Soiffer]

You can also use MathType with Word and then use Duxbury to translate to
Nemeth.  Like Scientific notebook, with MathType you just type the math in
using an easy math editor. If you are a familiar with Word, it is probably
a better option than getting Scientific Notebook and having to learn that.
MathType is just a math editor and so is a lot cheaper than Scientific
notebook.  Your school might already have a site license [full disclosure:
my company makes MathType]
