I always found LaTex mentioned when blind people needed to deal with math and started looking into it some time ago. Here is what I found. It was developed to typeset Mathematics for publication. These would be science and math articles. The typeset output is NOT accessible. I was not sure if you knew that from your post. The LaTex is accessible because it uses human readable syntax to produce the output. The output could be turned in to the teacher, you work in the LaTex. I would think that a sighted helper to make sure output is correct would be useful. I even wonder if the teacher could simply read the LaTex directly. As for your use of "Rubber" I think you said, I don't know that one. Tell me more...I can do some research on the subject. I will be happy to help you, contact me off list shenning@durango.net Scott -- Scott D. Henning Architectural Audio Design PO Box 1372 Durango, Colorado 81302
