This is very helpful. So, if I understand you correctly, MS Word
will tell you whether the font is large or small caps? How do you
make text large or small caps in Word? As I said, I currently use
a BrailleSense but don't think you can do it with that.

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!
