ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ

In the old days, some typewriter keyboards did not offer a way to type italics, so underline marks were a signal from the writer to the typesetter that the text should be italicized.

Underlining still indicates italics in typography. Avoid using the underline function except to indicate italics.

Italicize the titles of books, journals, periodicals, newspapers, pamphlets, proceedings, collections, theses, dissertations, plays, movies, operas, oratorios, paintings, drawings, sculptures, radio and television programs and other works of art.
