Writing Braille Math: 
Now to write the math content in your preferred Braille code you will need to 
switch to the BrailleNote Touch’s KeyMath app.  This app is used to instantly 
translate the Braille math dots into perfect looking print math.  
 

 

Still in KeyWord, Press BACKSPACE with M (BACKSPACE with dots 1-3-4) to 
insert mathematics.  Alternatively, you can find this feature in your context 
menu under “Editing Functions” 

 

Now you have been switched into KeyMath, a separate app designed 
specifically for converting Braille mathematics to perfect print math.  You 
will notice KeyMath say that it is in Nemeth code by default.  If you want 
this changed you will need to close the app completely from the recent 
apps list by holding the square button on the front of the Touch, navigating 
to KeyMath and pressing BACKSPACE with C to close it. Then, open 
KeyMath again from the All applications menu.  From there, choose the 
settings item and activate the Preferred Braille code item and choose
