of formatting we find in most projects. The reasons why
we format italics as we do also apply to the other
in-line formatting markups that we use.

Italic text.

We begin with Italics because it is the most common kind of formatting we find in most projects. The reasons why we format italics as we do also apply to the other in-line formatting markups that we use.

Many formatting decisions involve whether to place punctuation (especially periods) inside or outside the in-line markups, so most of these commented examples will focus on the proper placement of punctuation.

Before reviewing these examples, make sure your are familiar with the sections of the Formatting Guidelines on Italics and Placement of Inline Formatting Markup.
