Hi. I've already asked this on the copyediting-l list, and so far
there is no consensus. What is your opinion?

Which is correct, and why?

1. ... for use in temperatures 50 to 250oF.
2. ... for use in temperatures 50o to 250oF.
3. ... for use in temperatures 50oF to 250oF.

According to the GPO Style Manual, used for U.S. Government
publications, the correct way is:

50o to 250o F (With a space between "o" and "F")

But remember, that's the "Guvmint."
