Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated, since at the moment we are outsourcing all of our math and physics-related Braille because we are not familiar with Nemeth.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

documents in MS Word with all the styles and formatting. You can even use Math Type in Word to create Nemeth math braille with Duxbury.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Dux is definitely the way to go! I second Teresa's comments. Also, you might want to talk with the student to be sure that they want actual hard copy. Most students these days re using a computer with refreshable
braille displays for the bulk of their books. About the only thing that we output to hard copy these days is tactile graphics or reference materials that they need at a moment's notice.<o:p></o:p></p>
