Hi Sue, Some will, and some won't. Speech is fickle that way. I think you can leave them as is and it'll be fine. Folks will figure it out, I think. Thanks for asking.

They look fine in Braille, even without the word "chapter". They are also being protected by page numbers above them. My question: How would speech programs interpret them? I am bolding them at 16 point, as is correct. Will speech programs recognize them as Roman numerals? Thanks in advance, Sue S.
