-We mark up poetry differently than normal paragraph text. For Poetry, we apply the following DAISY Styles in Word:+For the most part, poetry is marked up the same way as other text. 
 + 
 +Use ''Normal'' style for the content, and ''Heading'' styles for Chapters, Sections, and Poem Titles.
  
-  * Poem (DAISY) +Poetry is an artistic medium, so we retain direct formatting such as: strong, emphasis, underline, and strikethrough.
-  * Poem - Title (DAISY) +
-  * Poem - Byline (DAISY) +
-  * Author (DAISY)+
  
-By poetry, we mean any text where definition of poetic structure is required. The Poem (DAISY) style is an appropriate form of markup for song texts or lyrics.+Languages can be applied as needed. See the [[public:nnels:etext:language|Language]] section for more info.

 Q: Hi: another poetry question : ) This is regarding How to Dress a Fish. There is again a lot of complex formatting in the original text. However, I've come across something new in the second poem, "Fox Hunting". The sections of the poem with more complex formatting have been inserted as images instead of text. I'm wondering how you think I should handle this: should I transcribe the poems into text and delete the images (and lose most of the formatting), or should I keep the images and transcribe the text as a prod note? Q: Hi: another poetry question : ) This is regarding How to Dress a Fish.
