A blank line or two, yes. And yoy could also make the number a little larger font and/or bold. The same situation was in a book I just finished validating. In that case I not only skipped a line before and after the number but I put it in parentheses with a period after the number because that's the way it was in the book. I also centered it, because that's the way it was in the book. Centering it might be a good idea in your situation, too. Cindy --- Kaitlyn Hill <Kaitlyn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > HI Cindy, > > Thanks!
