[BlindMath] Taking notes

[hmelias09 at gmail.com]

I have but it still doesn't work. I tried it with JAWS and VoiceOver. I will try it now with NVDA.

I'm not sure what I am doing wrong?

Have you tried turning off contracted braille input in each screen reader, so that it doesn't translate the braille which you enter? You need to set it for computer braille input.

Hello everyone:



So I have been studying both the Nemeth and UEB math. However, I have ran into a problem, and I am not sure if it's me or my AT. I am trying to use my Focus 40 with JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver on my Mac and iPhone. I can't seem to get it to work. I can't type Nemeth it tries to convert all my symbols to UEB contracted. So I can't use it to take notes or write equations. I recently ordered a Perkins typewriter but its in the mail. Now, when I try using the UEB math it partially works. It works for all the simple characters, but I noticed when I need to invoke grade 1 symbol (dots 5 6) it doesn't except it. It converts it to grade 2.



What suggestions do you have that can help me write my stuff using a braille display and an electronic device so I can study and take notes?



Thanks,



Hector Elias
