Let me chime in here. If you want to have accurate and complete
control over document formatting you want to learn LaTex. Nothing, for
either the blind or the sighted, come, close the the perfect control
over layout that LaTeX and the TeX typesetting system it uses delivers.
For the blind it is partially good as it is an old style markup based
system. It will produce perfect documents, letters, reports and
academic papers. While its learning curve is steep indeed it will
reward you with beautiful output. With TEX the blind can even produce
perfect mathematic and chemical formulas.
TeXShop is a VoiceOver compatible LaTeX and TeX environment that
support all the major function. There are also VO compatible program
for doing bibliographies and so forth.

hi
the pac amte then is a waste of money for those of us who need to
format documents with consistancy
will
it frustrating that we pay thousand of dollars for this equipment
and it can't even show us formatting on a display?
it rediculous, given that we ahve the option to format our
documents, isn't the idea of a pac mate for example to let us be
like people in the mainstream world? and see documents as they see
them?
anyways thanks for the clarification

Will, I don't think this is possible. I'm only aware of the
BrailleNote allowing you to do this, however I could be wrong. Hope
that helps.
