the usual disclaimer

+ ATC don't use Jeppesen

+ there's usually more to the AIP entry than the charts alone.

+ the (N)AIP graphical depiction / coding might (does!) differ from how air-nav data providers draw their charts, those underlines etc. Probably the AIP will follow certain edition of ICAO ANNEX 4, whereas the commercial publishers use their in-house standards. It is futile to point small differences (underlines missing) when the reason is both sources correctly depicing the same information by their own graphical language. Not always the case but mostly so.

Neither of the above affects the OP question, however the last thread got bit derailed across those lines.
