[Blindmath] SVG Printing of Drawings

[Amanda Lacy]

At the school for the blind they were using Word 2007 and 2010, but I don't 
know that the version makes any difference. Their computer was running very 
slow today, so we ended up printing it through IVEO. Word is just what the 
outreach specialist told me they usually use to emboss drawings. My test 
drawing was a simple doodle containing some circles and lines and no labels 
or text of any kind.

I will hopefully be testing the system more thoroughly next week and will 
let everyone know what I find out.
