Ideally you should have enough periods so the right margin is even for visual scanning of page numbers as a list, but an ellipsis would be better than a single space. that is outright torture to find anything.

Hi Debby,I'd like more commentary from our sighted print disabled readers to know whether this will be helpful before I change my practises. I'm happy to change, as you are, but not willing to make a permanent change until orunless it is commented upon by more than one person.Vallerie, Doug, Judy, anyone else who is print disabled, but sighted want tocomment on this?

I got to thinking about how Braille books have a series of dots between the chapter title and page number. So, I was wondering if inserting an ellipses between the chapter title and page number would be an appropriatesolution.An ellipses will be recognized and kept by bookshare's tools, and willgive some separation between chapter title and page number for those that need that. It wouldn't be spoken by most screen readers, so wouldn't interfere with anybody's listening pleasure. Finally, since Braille readers are used to the series of dots betweenchapter title and page number, it wouldn't seem unusual to them either. So, do you think this would be acceptable and not violate any booksharerules?
