PUNCTUATION, TYPEFACES

Generally, set punctuation marks in the same typeface as the word to which they are adjacent, even if opening and closing quotation marks will then be in different faces.  Exception: Both opening and closing brackets and parentheses should be in the same typeface.

When a question mark or exclamation point follows an italicized term but is not part of it, set it in roman.
