BRs representing paragraphs considered harmful

Open murata2makoto opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

At least in Japan, there are quite a few EPUB publications that contain BR tags (not P tags) for representing paragraphs (probably with a leading ideographic space character at the beginning of each "paragraph"). But screen readers do not recognize such "paragraphs". Users complain to developers of screen readers.

Is this a common problem? We are wondering if this issue can be addressed by a new value of the accessibilityFeature property or ACE.
