The prefixes "ortho-," "meta-" and "para-," along with their corresponding abbreviations ("o-," "m-" and "p-"), appear in italics and are ignored in alphabetizing. According to the actual chemical nomenclature rules in organic chemistry (in 2003), the numbers designating the positions of the disubstitution groups (1,2- for "ortho-," 1,3- for "meta-" and 1,4- for "para-") are to be preferred to the symbols "o-," "m-" and "p-." Furthermore, the prefixes "ortho-," "meta-" and "para-" should not be used anymore, and their corresponding abbreviations ("o-," "m-," and "p-") will soon be judged to be avoided, if not totally condemned. 1, record 3, English, - %284%2D%7Bbis%2D%5B4%2D%28dimethylamino%29phenyl%5Dmethylene%7D%2D2%2C5%2Dcyclohexadien%2D1%2Dylidene%29dimethylammonium%20chloride

Les préfixes de position «ortho-», «méta-» et «para-», tout comme les abréviations correspondantes «o-», «m-» et «p-», s'écrivent en italique et n'interviennent pas dans une classification par ordre alphabétique. Selon les règles de nomenclature de chimie organique en vigueur aujourd'hui (en 2003), il est recommandé d'utiliser les chiffres 1,2-, 1,3- et 1,4-, respectivement.

L'ensemble de tous les procédés de duplication et de reproduction des documents constitue la Reprographie. [...] La duplication consiste fondamentalement à créer un modèle, (stencil par exemple), à partir duquel seront tirés tous les exemplaires désirés, par un procédé différent de celui qui a servi à créer le modèle. Le domaine d'application de ce procédé est surtout celui des notes, consignes, instructions de service, circulaires et tous documents comportant principalement du texte. 2, record 4, French, - duplication
