[Blindmath] reading latex

[Sarah Jevnikar]

Hi Sofia,
As others have mentioned, you'll need to get the original LaTeX (.tex) files from your instructor. From there, you can read them with JAWS, or open them in Duxbury (if you have it installed) and translate the file into Braille. From there, you can emboss the file, or save it as a .brf file to transfer to a Braille notetaker or read with a Braille display.
HTH,
Sarah

Hello

I have to take a statistics class in college, and my professor says he
writes all the documents he uses in class using latex and converts
them to PDF.

Can I read these PDF files using Jaws or Braille? Or is there another
tool I can get that would allow me to read these files either with
Jaws or Braille?

Thank you in advance

Sofia
