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.
