[BlindMath] Accessibility of Latex to PDF

[Brandon Keith Biggs]

Hello,
If you ask for the LaTeX file, it's not super difficult to convert using
pandoc.
You would want to download pandoc and on the command line type something
like:
pandoc mathFile.tex -s -o mathFile.docx

where mathFile is the name of your file and change the .tex to something
matching the extension of your latex file.
Thanks,
