[Nfb-science] MathDaisy 1.0 Released

[John Miller]

Hello Neil,
Material of any business matter is more than appropriate if it offsers a
solution to the blind in science and engineering as does your solution.
Would you summarize the details for us?
So if someone made math using ms word 2003 without using mathtype, does
your solution succeed in making accessable output?
Does it work with office 2007 with no mathtype add-on?
Does it work for a particular mathtype add-on used during the creation
of the text in combination with either ms ofice 2003 or 2007?
What is the price?
We are very interested to hear about your progress at Design Science.
Very best,
John

Apologies for the commercial nature of this post, but it is something of
interest to many people on the list...

We at Design Science are happy to announce the release of our newest
product, MathDaisy. Many educational institutions now require teachers,
instructors, and professors to make classroom materials accessible to
students with disabilities. MathDaisy makes it possible to save
Microsoft Word documents containing equations as a DAISY book that can
be read by students on a personal computer or a dedicated eBook reader.

The press release has been published on our website at
http://www.dessci.com/en/company/press/releases/090413.htm

Our hope is that MathDaisy together with Word's Save as DAISY makes it
easy enough to publish DAISY "books" with math in them that anyone can,
and more importantly, will create accessible material to give to their
students, colleagues, etc.
