Can't find the main thread on it, so I'll post it here. Wanted to give a heads-up that Domonic Brown is one of the prospects rumored in the Halladay deal, and the AP story has his name spelled wrong.
 
Is there a font that is used for edit notes these days?

A number of years back, the ATEX system had a notes font.

But I don't know of one for the pagination systems. Do writers just put NFP by the word or phrase or do they put a note on top of the story for editors to see.
