To all: I agree with you all--underlining is useless for the braille reader. When I transcribe I omit the underlining to simplified the reading when unnecessar. There is enough going on with punctuation signs why add composition signs if not needed.Priscilla Date: Sat, 29 Nov 2008 01:15:26 -1000To: duxuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: brailleit@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: [duxuser] Re: Column heading underliningAloha Sandy,I don't understand that rule either, and I've never seen that dot 5 you mention in a braille document. Perhaps someone else will be able to explain the purpose, but I agree with Steve that it is just more clutter.At 02:05 PM 11/28/2008, you wrote: Sandy, As someone who has read braille all my life, I can't imagine what that Bana rule is even talking about. I see no useful purpose in underlining column headings. That kind of "eye candy" is nothing but a needless distraction in braille. Steve ----- Original Message ----- From: Sandra McCoy To: duxuser freelists.org Sent: Thursday, November 27, 2008 20:51 Subject: [duxuser] Column heading underlining Does anyone know how to enter the underlining of a column heading. I looked in the Bana Formats Rules and it said to flush the heading left and then on the next line enter dot 5 in the first cell and then dots 25 across the width of the column. Then enter the column items beginning in the next line under that. (Rule 4, Sec. 5, b) In Duxbury entering the colon : gives you the dots 25, but I can't figure out how to enter dot 5 by itself at the beginning. When I use the underline style for the word, it just puts an italic sign on the heading. Thanks, Sandy Access your email online and on the go with Windows Live Hotmail. Sign up today.
