General Instructions 15 <br />compounding), abbreviations, signs, symbols, fi gures, and italic. <br />Such copy, including even obvious errors, will be followed. Th e lack <br />of preparation on copy so designated shall, in itself, constitute prep- <br />aration. “Fol. lit.’’ does not include size and style of type or spacing. <br /> Obvious errors are corrected in copy marked “FIC & punc.’’ (follow, <br />including capitalization and punctuation). <br />2.39. In congressional hearings, the name of the interrogator or witness <br />who continues speaking is repeated following a head set in boldface, <br />a paragraph enclosed in parentheses, and a paragraph enclosed in <br />brackets. <br /> In a head set in boldface, the title “Mr.’’ is not used, and “the <br />Honorable’’ preceding a name is shortened to “Hon.’’ Street ad- <br />dresses are also deleted. Example: “Statement of Hon. John P. Blank, <br />Member, American Bar Association, Washington, DC.’’ <br />2.40. Paragraph or section numbers (or letters) followed by fi gures or let- <br />ters in parentheses will close up, as “section 7(B)(1)(a),’’ “paragraph <br />23(a),’’ “paragraph b(7),’’ “paragraph (a)(2)’’; but “section 9(a) (1) and <br />(2)’’, “section 7 a and b’’. In case of an unavoidable break, division <br />will be made aft er elements in parentheses, and no hyphen is used. <br />2.41. Bill style.—Bill copy will be followed as supplied. Bills will be treated <br />as “FIC & punc.’’ Th is data is transmitted to the GPO via fi ber optic <br />transmission with element identifi er codes in place.

Th ese instructions must be followed. <br />Abbreviations <br />2.43. In marking abbreviations to be spelled, preparers must show what <br />the spelled form should be, unless the abbreviations are common <br />and not susceptible to more than one construction. An unfamiliar <br />abbreviation, with spelled-out form unavailable, is not changed. <br />chapter2.indd 15chapter2.indd 15 1/27/09 9:59:36 AM1/27/09 9:59:36 AM
