Hi,
I personally do use Tex cor mathematical research work but that's all. I
don't see why anyone would boher ouside of that. Isn't a word processer, by
definition, designed to assist in publication of standard articles?
Pointless to me

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.
