Code differences between Formats, UEB Math, and Nemeth. UEB Math follows Formats for displayed material, directions, and itemized material/lists. The only difference is UEB Math mandates 3-1 paragraphing whereas Formats says follow print unless a text is entirely blocked. Nemeth does things the Nemeth way, with its own rules for displayed material, directions, and itemized material/lists but is in accord with UEB Math paragraphing in 3-1. In summary, all math will have 3-1 paragraphing, otherwise UEB Math follows Formats and Nemeth does Nemeth. Right?

Do you use the Macros for Corel? If so, do you know if/how you can change the size of the arrowheads?

A work around for that is to right click on the arrow on the template, drag it over the line you have from macros and click on copy all properties and it'll change.

Corel Draw tid bit. Do you use the "snap to" option and if so, what do you snap the braille text to?

If you have trouble aligning your text on a page, consider "snapping" to the guideline.

PS This works better with braille 29 than braille 36.

Are there any Duxbury users here? Curious to know what it means to use or not use the option, "Read formatted braille without interpretation"?

Blank graphs. Blank clocks. Blank fraction strips. What are your thoughts for non-consumable math textbook transcriptions? Do you replicate every one regardless? Do you presume they are not used thus omit them to save the customer $? Do you replicate one and refer the student to it? Perhaps place one in the p pages and note on the TN page?
