Hi George,
Thank you so much for your support.
Do I understand correctly?
1. For Nemeth, we need Mathtype to transcribe Braille maths.
2. For UEB, transcribing software is not so necessary.
3. Nemeth has different format than that of the regular print. Example:
4+4 = 8
4. Whereas the UEB follows similar pattern or format used for Print. 4 + 4
= 8
5. Now how about the Science such as of Chemistry equations, in UEB,
Is it also taken care?
6. Last time, I was translating Braille to Print. The multiple choices
of b, c and d, when translated to print came out as but, can and do.
How can we resolve such issues?
I deeply apologise for asking you too many questions, but your answer
will indeed make a huge difference in the lives of the visually
impaired not only for mine but the entire nation.
Once again, thanking for your support and looking forward to hearing soon.

Hi Kuenga,
To be quite clear, UEB Math Braille does use a little more space than
Nemeth, but simply because there is less ambiguity.
On the other hand UEB literary braille's increase is almost negligible.
A major consideration longer term is computer based back-translation from
math braille to print.
Literary UEB is far more easily converted back to printed text, and we
expect to see inroads with math also.
In education, this is quite important unless almost every member of staff
knows braille.

Hi guys,
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback..
With UEB Braille occupies more space than the Nemeth, am I right? Am I
right to understand that for Nemeth mathtype is required to translate
mathematics to Braille while for UEB with Nemeth, mathtype is not required
for transcribing into Braille.
Thanking in advance for your clarification.
Kuenga Chhoegyel.
