[NFB-Braille-Discussion] braille formatting issue

[Paul Ferrara]

All,
If you are transcribing a brochure or lesson that has alt text, my understanding is that it is best to surround that alt text with transcriber's note indicators; however, in the file I received, I see the word "image" in brackets right before the alt text.
Do you think it is best to keep the word "image" and the brackets since it describes that the upcoming text is alt text or would it be better to remove the word and the brackets and just surround the alt text with transcriber's notes?
To reiterate, the word "Image" with the brackets is there to indicate alt text; that is something the designer did; I can keep or remove it.
Which is best?
Thank you.
