[Blindmath] Question about compiling LaTeX with EdSharp

Hi Anthony.

It might help us with our diagnosis if you could provide the exact 
details of the error.

If you can't extract this from the window that tells you what's 
happening as the document is being compiled, then look for the log 
file. If your file is called BigMess.tex, then the file you want to 
find is called BigMess.log
When you try to open this file from Windows explorer (or equivalent), 
it should open in a notepad window that is screen reader friendly. Go 
to the bottom of the file and look for the error message for us please.

Time differences might mean I will be sleeping as you do this so I 
leave the solution to those list members living east of the 
international date line to help first.


As an alternative, you might try to compile the file outside EdSharp. 
If you can go to a command prompt window in the folder where your 
file is located, then just typing latex BigMess should start the 
compilation. If that works, then the problem you are having is the 
link with EdSharp. I'd be surprised if it is the link between the two 
programs but you can test this for yourself.

Thanks,
Jonathan
