and interpretation of revision bars? The reason I am asking is that it
appears that each writer makes up their own rules about how to apply and
interpret revision bars. I would like to know if there is a standard for the
use of revision bars.
I'm not sure if you are talking about revision bars (usually on either side
of revised paragraphs) or proofreading marks?
