RE: Papers on Speaking Math to the visually impaired

The guys at Design Science have an MSAA output for their Word plug in that,
while not terribly efficiently, does read things reasonably well with JAWS.
I may be wrong, they may only support math in web browsers through JAWS.
You should check either way.

There are a bunch of knowledgable mathematics folks on the blindMath list.
Here's some information about it:

I'm looking forward to any answers to this, too.  I'vm taking statistics and
financial accounting right now.  It is a big struggle to read the equations
which are mainly written in Word's equation editor.  Wish there was an
accessible way to read those equations.
 
Cheers,
David

Hey everyone,

A colleague of mine is interested in researching the reading of mathematics
to blind individuals, a topic I have researched briefly, but not completely.
I've already read Robert Stevens work, but is there any other
papers/dissertations/etc folks would recommend reading on the topic before I
dive in?

Andreas
