I am using it all the time, and used it for calc when I had to take it for the last two semesters. The main annoyance is that things like super- and subscripts are not formatted like they would if someone had written them, the word is written out. For example, the equation:
2 (superscript) 3+7=15
would show up in print as:
2 (superscript) 3+7=15
Other than that sort of thing it works very well and means you do not have to mess with computer braille; you can do math in braille, insert web addresses and have the periods translate correctly, and all that. It takes a bit of getting used to (the "to" sign is gone, there have to be spaces between contractions like and, with, of, a, the, and for, and a few other rules) but if you know grade 2 the lurning curve is pretty small.

Have a great day,
Alex

Subject: [Braillenote] UEB and the braille Note

Hello listers. I would be very interested to know if anyone is
using the Braille Note for math using UEB. Any experiences you can share about this topic would be welcome. Back translation of UEB into print for sighted teachers is of particular interest to me, but I would welcome information on anything related to UEB and the braille Note.
