Hi Kristina,
I’m afraid I don’t know Scientific Notebook well enough to advise. I tend to
favour MathType since it works within Word.
If you are sure you are using the “English (UEB) – BANA” Template when you open
a new document in DBT, do so, and type in a short text with an equation.
The cat could not figure out a+b has he did not learn at the cattery.
Now highlight the “a+b” and go to DBT’s Layout menu and select “Apply Style”
(Or you could just press the F8 key)
Go down the list to the “math” Style and click on it and return to your
document.
If you now hold down the Alt key and tap the F8 key, it should reveal the codes
I described earlier. Repeating Alt-F3 will toggle the Codes off again.
When you translate, you should see the dot 5 appear.
If this does not work, let me know and we’ll see what’s might be wrong.
As regards Scientific Notebook, I think it best to call Duxbury.

Hi George,
I created math problems in Scientific Notebook and then open it in Duxbury.
When I translated the math problems in Duxbury, I'm not getting the dot 5 for
the minus next to dot 36? Am I doing something wrong? When you say apply math
style? What do you mean.
Thanks,
Kristina

Hi Kristina,
If I simply write “a-z”, it translates with a dash as in, “He went from a-z”
But have you applied the “math” Style to the mathematical material?
If you view Codes in DBT (Alt-F3) it should for example show as
<math>a-z</math> and you will see the dot 5 when translated. Thus it
translates as “a minus z”.

Caryn,
Hi! I picked the template you told me to use. The minus is not coming on in
the UEB format dogs 5, 36. Why is this happening? Should I pick a different
template?
Thanks,
Kristina

Hello Kristina.
Sue is correct. For producing Nemeth Code in UEB, use the DBT template English
(UEB) - BANA with Nemeth.
In Nemeth Code, the minus sign is represented as dots 36. That is why the
Nemeth portions of your documents are showing you minus as dots 36. UEB, on the
other hand, represents the minus sign as dots 5, 36.
All the best,
Caryn

Hello,
I'm currently using Duxbury 12.1. I use Math Type and Scientific Notebook
when I need to do math problems. When I go to pick translate in Duxbury all of
the math problems that have a minus is not showing the dot 5 before the minus?
What template should I pick for Nemeth math in Duxbury?
Thanks,
