Dear Rick,
To make it easy to search chapters in BRF files, I insert the word chapter
with a capital C and then the number followed by a colon followed by the
name of the chapter if there is one. Bookshare puts this information on one
line anyway, so I do it when I'm proofing. The font bolding and enlarging
helps with daisy navigation, but not with navigating on a Braille Note in
braille mode.
example
Chapter 4: Storm Clouds
bolded and enlarged to 16 in Arial.
As for the footnotes, your method sounds good. To streamline it a little I'd
signal the end of the footnote with a right bracket, making "End of footnote
unnecessary. Like this:
[Footnote 7 Like his characters, Dickens had difficulty managing his
personal finances, Baker, Life of Dickens]
I didn't write the manual. This is just how I do it.
Always with love,
Lissi

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] chapter numbers
chapter 1, chapter 2, chapter 3, etc.
I myself prefer to have the word chapter when I am reading these books.
Do you agree?
When a book only has the number alone, can you put the word chapter in
there when you are proofing it?
Similarly, as can be done with footnotes on the same page. open bracket
followed by the word footnote then right bracket. then the footnote text.
and then [end of footnote] in a bracket.
Thanks.
Rik
