Rex,

A few more checks from Cor 1 against draft of Part 1:

Items 188-190 look OK.

Item 191 is OK wrt Cor 1.  But there is a vary awkward page break after the header row in the Constants subtable that follows.  Worth a check after accepting changes.

Rex> For some years now, I've had pages occasionally break after the initial header of a table, and as far as I have been able to determine, there is no way to inhibit that programmatically. As such, during my very final pass over a new edition, I've manually inserted page breaks, as I've spotted this kind of thing.



Item 192 is OK wrt Cor 1.  The line that marks the change overlays the table when shown at the right-hand side of the page in the PDF.  But presumably that will be fine once the changes are accepted.

Rex> Agreed.




Items 193-197 look OK wrt Cor 1.

Noticed use of "we" in example in 20.1.4.2.2 (changed in item 197) and elsewhere.
  "In this example, we set the fill ..."
Would probably be better as "This markup example sets the fill..."

Rex> Agree; I'll fix that.



Items 198-199 look OK

Item 200 looks OK wrt Cor 1.  Is there a reason for some entries in the Classification column being in italics and others not?

Rex> Not that I can see. I'll make them all Roman (that is, remove the italics).



Items 201-203 look OK.   See also Cor2.

Items 204-216 look OK.

Item 217.  You have changed one "which" to "that" but not the one that was in Cor 1.  I think both should be "that."

Rex> Agreed; good catch.



Items 218-232 look OK.

Item 233 has "0" in Cor 1 and "zero" in draft of Part 1

Rex> I will fix the printed schema to match Cor1.



Items 234-243 look OK.

That gets to a convenient break (at the end of Annex B).
