This is fantastic Amelia. I am also curious which apps you used to do this.
I am hoping you know that just in the last few months, all math can be
completed perfectly in word using MathCat and MathML--nemeth or ueb or
LaTex--here is an overview: screen readers and displays for math -
yourtechvision.c <https://yourtechvision.com/?s=math>om but a lot more
videos on this site of all things math
