very messy looking to me, as well as being often confusing
to students.
When I braille documents that have underlines like that, I just remove them and leave the rest of the line blank. That way, if someone is filling out the form by inserting the page in a braille writer, he/she will have space for the answer. I don't know if there's a rule for this, but I've just given you Steve's rule.
