Hi Alison,
First of all, I'm not sure what the stripper does with braille. Second, I
like blank lines between headings. Third, I like things in a list indented
as though they were paragraphs without blank lines, so they don't feel (no
pun intended) like headings. I hope that makes sense.
Thanks.

Hi Everyone,
I do read Braille, but I don't always know if my own opinion reflects that
of the majority, so once in a while I ask questions here.
I'm validating a book that has a lot of headings and almost no blank lines
separating them. I know that when I'm rereading hardcopy Braille, it's
great
to have the headings separated with blank lines, but the experience isn't
the same with a Braille display. Do those of you reading with displays
still like to have the headings separated by blank lines? I've been doing
that, but if it doesn't make a big difference then I won't. Also, what
about numbered lists, do you like a blank line after each numbered item?
How about bulleted lists? I've been changing the bullets into stars upon
the suggestion of many of you on this list, but I hadn't asked about the
blank lines before.
All feedback is welcome. It won't lead to any official Bookshare policy,
this is just for my own reference.
Thanks,
Allison
