I don't think they tell you how to set them in Duxbury print? I really didn't 
want to make them all manually in braille, any ideas?

I'm working my way through the course as
well. I believe that Lesson 3 addresses how to do this.

This terrifies me also. ;)

This is a full Nemeth document for the Nemeth certification lesson. And
yes these are the characters that I need. I am just trying to figure out
how I would write these out in print first then translate to braille. Sounds
like fun, ey? 

 

Would I need to use the Language Table Switching codes to do this? I am
also trying to figure out how I would make some of these characters? I
have the Hebrew and Greek, but still looking for Russian and German characters.
Woo Hoo!

 

I appreciate any advice given.

 

Tina

Hi Tina,

 

You have really asked a loaded
question here.

 

Nemeth, Greek,  German
and Hebrew in the same sentence all terrifies me, so perhaps you could
provide a bit more information and perhaps an example or three.

 

When you say “Nemeth” are
you dealing with Mathematics containing Greek and German characters, for
example?  For pure Mathematics, personally I would use MathType or
LaTeX.

 

If you wish to switch between
literary languages, you should be aware of the new lnb Code in 11.1 as
described below.
Language Table Switching

Switch between language tables using the
new [lnb~xxx] Code. 

This differs from the [lng...] Code in so much as it is a "Table Switch"
using the actual braille code for the selected language. 

 

George Bell.

Hello All,

I am trying to do a Nemeth document that is switching form German letters
to Greek letters to Hebrew letters. First question is there a short-cut
to switching to these different languages in one document? Also are there
short-cut keys for the actual letter themselves?

 

Any advice is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Tina
