Hi Margaret,
Starter for ten:
There are no examples of these signs in RUEB with a capitals passage.
So I wouldn't like to say for definite, but from 8.6.1 and 8.6.2, it appears it
doesn't matter.
However, the norm does seem to be to terminate the capital passage at the end
of the symbols sequence, unless nesting is needed.
I hope this helps.
With best regards,
James.

Subject: [ueb-ed] Status of "symbols" for Trademark, Copyright, Registered in
conjunction with Capital termination sign?
Greetings Folks
I have a feeling that this is one of those which is correct *either way* in
UEB, but just want to check.
We have had an example where there are 4 words in full capitals, followed by
the symbol for Trademark (Unicode 2122).
When we run it through Duxbury, the termination sign appears after the 4-5 t.
Of course, if the symbol is spaced, the termination sign appears before the 4-5
t. (This makes sense and is not part of the query.)
My question:
Is it *also correct* for the termination sign to appear after the words, but
*before* the unspaced symbol?
As the TM is considered a symbol, rather than the letters T and M - just as the
Copyright (Unicode 00a9) or the Registered sign (Unicode 00ae), I could see an
argument for either/both being correct.
What say you, wise folk?
Margaret
