Hi Ketan,
 
Much depends on whether your are a sighted or blind user of
DBT.
 
If you are sighted, by far the easiest way of producing Math
Braille is to use a product called "Scientific Notebook" to
produce the initial math work.  See
http://www.mackichan.com/ for more details.
 
Well prepared Scientific Notebook files can be imported into
DBT and then translated to produce Nemeth, British or French
Math braille.
 
Be aware however that careful proof reading is still
necessary.
 
It is worth mentioning that Scientific Notebook is to the
math publishing industry, what a desktop publisher is to the
literary industry.  It initially produces material for
sighted students.  However the same files can be used to
produce large print math.  And of course the same files
again can be used to produce braille math in DBT.
 
George.
