I would probably leave off the blank lines myself.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Another Question for Braille Readers


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
