[Blindmath] LaTex to Braille Printing

All that is needed is to open the .tex file in Duxbury, translate it into a
Braille file, and either save it as a .brf file or emboss from there.
HTH,
Sarah

Yes, as George said, if you mean Duxbury, it has a LaTeX importer that works
very well with Scientific Notebook (originally designed for it actually via
NMSU). Hopefully, it would have no difficulty with your LaTeX files as well.
The school will need to have a version of DBT WIN (Duxbury) greater than or
equal to 10.3 because that was the first version that included the LaTeX
importer. Also, the translation became better and better, and by 10.6, it
was doing quite well with everything BUT spatial.
The 11.1 SR4 attempts some spatial, but there are still some bugs that need
to be worked out.

I presume you mean "Duxbury".

Duxbury does have a LaTeX importer and the school should be able to do this.

Hello all,
My professors have sent me lecture notes in latex sources but I don't have
Braille display. I would like to print it out in Braille papers.
The school for the blind near in location use Dustary for Braille printing.
Could anyone suggest me how to convert latex sources into Braille?
I much appreciate your help.
Thank you very much,
Nam
