3.12 Format Indicators.
To tell you how a document is formatted, KeySoft places special format indicators at particular
points in a document. These format indicators are both spoken and displayed on the Braille display.
You may have encountered a number of special groups of symbols on the Braille display when you
were reviewing your "Sample" document. They tell you how the document is formatted. When
displaying format indicators KeySoft follows the guidelines set for literary Braille format
established by the Braille Authority of North America.
When using speech, format indicators are identified by their names. If the cursor is positioned over
an indicator, the name of the indicator is displayed. On the Braille display, if the cursor is
positioned under a format indicator, it appears under each of the characters of the format indicator.
