    That was a misstatement. Braille Formats 2011 does say that foreign words in English context are contracted. Forgive the slip.

    I have a student that is being instructed by an outside source that his format in this situation is wrong. He needed validation from an outside source to legitimize his claim which you have done. Thank you for your help.

    I'm confused by this latest post. In your commentary you state that you have concluded that it is no longer to have chapter or section number on a line by itself.

    I agree with you for the reasons you stated. Therefore, I don't understand the conclusion that you apparently reached, that sample #2 is the better choice. Sample #2 does indeed put the section number on a line by itself and I think the result is not particularly desirable. I would go with Sample #1.

    I'm sorry to dwell on this, but there is still confusion. You stated that ALL of the blue words are underlined (with the one exception). But in your example, anxiety is blue, but not underlined.

    It makes a difference. The point here is that we want to avoid using the two font attributes in a word because it creates a lot of clutter to read through. It would help a LOT if all the blue words are underlined, but what about "anxiety."? It is blue, but not underlined. Please clarify.

    All of the blue words are also underlined with the exception of 1 word. This word is black and underlined but it seems this was a print error. The reason we know this is due to the fact that the Spanish glossary shows it's equivalent word underlined and in blue. So in summary, yes and no.

    the question is repeated in the attachment along with examples. I should have included them in my first post and didn't. Sorry about that.

    in reply to: Photo Credits located in the Table of Contents #21808

    There are many times when photo credits have no direct reference to their corresponding photos located somewhere in the print. How it one to determine which credit to omit?

    Also what if (as in our case) you have a credit citation (a copyright) right below the photo but no caption for that photo? Based on your answer and also the way Rule 6.21a and 9.5.4 read, it is impled we are to omit the photo when there is no caption and it is not referenced in print. Ultimaly requiring us to omitting the credit as well. Is this a correct interpretation?
