Everywhere I have worked it is accepted practice to list trademarks near
the beginning of the document (usually along with copyright information
following the title page or screen), and to use the trademark symbol
only the first time the name or acronym is used. Or, if the trademarked
item is mentioned in a page footer or header, the symbol may be used
there as well. But there is no legal reason to attach it to every
mention of the item.
