<p>Normally when referring to a book or movie, one would underline or italicize the title. The common app does not allow for underlining or italicizing. What is the the proper punctuation for a book/movie title on the common app?</p>
<p>Since no formatting is allowed, I would just list the book without italicizing/underlining.</p>
<p>I read that you’re supposed to use <em>title</em> when you can’t use italics for on-line sites that don’t allow formatted HTML. Is that better than just leaving it in plain text? It just looks wrong to do nothing.</p>
