Hi George,
I know that is the technically correct way to do this. But it creates a lot of
clutter for the reader.
In this instance, it is a fully bolded paragraph with one word unbolded for
emphasis. I don’t see any provision to allow for interchanging the text so that
the single word is bolded and the remainder is plain text. Perhaps following
print is the only choice for something like this now.

Hi Jean,
In the strictest sense, the paragraph would begin with bold passage indicators
(assuming 3 or more bold words followed). The bold terminator would appear
before the normal word. Then the non-bold word followed by the bold passage
indicator. Finally the bold terminator would appear at the end of the
remainder of the passage.
Alternatively, if you did not wish to use bold indicators for some reason, yet
still needed to indicate such “emphasised” words, you could use a “Transcriber
Defined Symbol” as described in section 3.26.
George.

Following UEB and Braille Formats 2011. When an entire note or paragraph is in
bold, and there is one word that is NOT bolded for emphasis, how is this now
handled? The bold is purely a visual tool, and the emphasized word is the one
with “No emphasis”.
In the past I would simply ignore the bold and italicize the single word.
How is this now handled, and where is it mentioned? I can’t find a specific
example of this usage. If a switch is made, how is this indicated on the TN
page? Wording?
