Our latest iPhone/iPod touch app is now available on the AppStore. This new app is the first stage of collating the international list of copy markup and correction symbols used throughout the world. It’s been an interesting process, because we found slightly different symbols in different parts of the world, even though most countries have a standard, and most of their standards seem to be based on the English BS 5261. For this reason, we have also shown any alternative mark.
With the first version available, the next stage will be to review the entries against the differing standards and make some sense of it all for the next update. Version 1.0 contains about 40 entries, with more to come.
