For your first question:  since the bold terminator has an upper dot, the 'in' contraction can be used.  See 10.5.3 on page 115...there is an example of -in and the contraction for 'in' is used.  Keep in mind that the 'in' contraction has special rules regarding this that other lower cell signs do not have.

For your second question: to me it is obvious that in Likewise, the period and quotation mark are included in the bold...so I would terminate after.  For lip-read, it appears to me that the period is NOT included in the bold, so I would terminate before.  UEB says to follow print - and if you can't tell if the punctuation is included or not, pick a way and be consistent.  In the attached example, you should follow print.
