ParticipantWhen italics start in the middle of a paragraph then continue through the next paragraph is this treated as multiple emphasized paragraphs according to UEB 9.9 BF 5.6? Thank you for your time and attention

ModeratorGood morning. This is a great question. I’m forwarding it to the UEB Literary Forum, since placement of UEB symbols falls under its area of expertise.

ModeratorYes, you would place another opening typeform indicator at the beginning of the second paragraph and so forth ending the entire passage with the typeform terminator.
Hope this helps. Another reference is the NLS instruction manual for UEB 15.1f.

ModeratorGood morning! Shellee Kotshchwar posted a follow up question on the Braille Formats Forum. I am pasting it below:
Since emphasis begins in the middle of a paragraph would you format the attached as if multiple paragraphs were emphasized, using the ending emphasis at the end of the last paragraph?

ParticipantJust to be clear, I would not terminate italic passage indicator at the end of the first paragraph and restart at the beginning of the next paragraph but instead treat as multiple paragraph emphasis even though emphasis begins in the middle of the paragraph. I’m sorry if that is confusing. example
blah blah blah……………………. and so it would seem.

ModeratorI think what might be confusing is the wording passage versus paragraph.
In the example below IPI=italic passage indicator; IPT – italic passage terminator
blah blah blah……………………. IPIand so it would seem.
IPIThis how the cat chased the mouse.IPT ………………
I agree, it is confusing.
