Hi Kelby,
After two years of law review, I believe the only way to insure
accuracy is to do a bunch of insert F to read you the attributes of
the text. One important thing, however, is that when you're using JAWS
online and press insert F, it tells you the font attributes, but does
not tell you whether it is in small caps, at least my version doesn't.
So, I suggest preparing an MS Word document where you copy the
examples of the most commonly-cited forms from the online Bluebook.
This also saves you from tabbing around on the website. For me, the
most common ones have been:
Law review articles (consecutively and non-consecutively paginated)
books
online sources
cases
federal statutes
administrative opinions
model rules
Good luck!
