| I'm on the verge of securing a technical editing
| contract. Although I've done editing throughout my
| writing career, this will be the first time that I
| will do it exclusively in a structured documentation
| group.
|
| Is there an accepted list of proofing marks that
| should be used in such environments or can you free
| hand your style?
|
| If yes, can someone supply them to me or point me
| towards a list of them on the net?
You can find them by searching for "proofreader's marks" on google. I
haven't seen the standard marks used too often in technical editing,
though.
