 +Q: In the book the Haunting of Room 909, the author frequently capitalizes whole words in dialogue to indicate the speaker is yelling or emphasizing something. I understand that leaving the words capitalized will mean that one letter is read at a time. Should I just make these words lower-case, or use emphasis style, or is there another way I can make them stand out?
 +
 +A: Just remove the all-capital letters, we do not need to add anything to the text.

 A: No, TTS is smart and will pronounce it like "Richard the 3rd" :) Most always, we avoid editing the original writing in any way. We can change how the TTS pronounces words by adding specific tags into the code. A: No, TTS is smart and will pronounce it like "Richard the 3rd" :) Most always, we avoid editing the original writing in any way.

 +Q: I am working on "Until We Are Free" and one of the person's mentioned in the book stylizes their name as "iZrEAL Jones." I understand that this formatting will created problems for screen readers and that the name should be converted to standard capitalization for proper nouns. I am wondering though if there are any special considerations for proper nouns that I should be aware of?
 +
 +A:You can follow the wiki guidelines for capitalization. The screenreader wont be able to read this name otherwise.
