I think Deborah is correct. Just make them consistent. Use lower case Roman numerals consistently where they appear in the text, such as in preliminary page numbers, and use upper case ones consistently where those appear, such as in chapter titles and medical terminology and wherever else. The main point is not to mix the two, as in Ii for instance, where you have an upper case I followed by a lower case i.

Except that it said to use lower case Roman Numerals in the proofreading manual. So what should we do?

Hi all,

Excuse me Cindy, but Roman Numerals are always in caps.
