Actually, I have had those a couple of times and when I looked directly at the book (I am sighted) for verification, both times mine were fancy fonts like Mayrie thought. Not that they always would be, but mine were.

I just get rid ofthe brackets. I sure hope that's the right thing to do. I always figuredit had something to do with weird fonts.

Occasionally, I'm finding the first letter of a word surrounded by brackets.Is anyone aware of a reason for this? Is it something to do with scanning, or is there any reason that British text might use this or is it authorstyle. I'm not sure if I should wipe them out, or leave them.
