(contracted; show full)=== What was completed overall ===

* Article title pages.
* Index pages at the end of each volume.
* Pages with images.
* Pages with tables.
* Table of contents.
* Main namespace article 
titlpages.
* Major categorization of the main namespace articles.

=== What needs to be done ===

* Proofreading of pages.
* Inserting overlooked tables.
* Inserting overlooked images.
* Replacing font size templates with the PSM specific font templates.
* Linking the volume index entry anchors to the titles.

== Typographic formats ==

=== Hyphenation ===

* Hyphenated words, which by themselves are correct, are left as is, being the typesetting style at the time.
(contracted; show full)
* For single quotes use the standard English typewrite single quote ' (ANSI 039) They are used to enclose text, within, or in place of, double quotation marks.

=== Typographic characters, ligatures, and symbols ===

* Check for the missing 'em—dash' — (ANSI 0151) character. This is available on the advanced editor toolbar, or, by request can be added to the user's Charinsert preference, or use the {{tl|--}} template. 
* Check for 
{{color|blue|''<nowiki>italics</nowiki>''}} in the text. ''Referenced publication names are always italicized''.
* Chek for ambiguous text. They may be incorrectly rendered scientific, technical, or currency symbols like, fractions , degrees '°' (ANSI 0176), currency '£' symbols {ANSI 0163} or centered decimal points '·' (ANSI 0183).­­
* Check for 'ae', and 'oe', which are most likely to be the ligatures of 'æ', (ANSI 0230) and the 'œ' (ANSI 0156). Assumptions can be made of their existence in the text, based on the article's subject matter.
* In some volumes, symbols and characters are ignored by the OCR. These include the em dash (—), currency symbols ($ and £), and the temperature indicator º, etc.
* Characters, symbols and ligatures can also be inserted by using their HTML equivalents. See References for the HTML ANSI codes.

== Fonts sizes and font templates ==

* Fonts larger than 100% are of no concern. Use any size as you deem to be matching the original.
* For font sizes that are less that 100%, the following list of templates were designed for the project because they have line heights proportional to the font size.<ref>The {{tl|fsx}} template doesn't reduce the line height proportionately.</ref>

* {{tl|fs90}} is used to enclose Author names, 
* {{tl|fs90/s}} {{tl|fs90/e}} used to enclose a bloc of paragraphs and/or span pages. When used to span pages, the {{color|blue|<nowiki>{{fs90/e}}</nowiki>}} is placed in the footer of the first page, to terminates the block and {{color|blue|<nowiki>{{fs90/s}}</nowiki>}} is placed in the header of the following page to begin the new block. This way the transcluded text in the main namespace will be enclosed with a single set of templates because headers and footers are excluded.
* {{tl|fs85}} 85% font size and 100% line height. - Used exclusively for image captions and subtitled sections of recurring monthly features.
* {{tl|fs75}} 75% font size and 95% line height. - Used to enhance the diversity of font sizes of article sub-titles.
* {{tl|fs70}} 70% font size and 90% line height. - Used inline to match the line height of fraction templates {{color|blue|<nowiki>{{fs70|{{over||}}}} and {{fs70|{{frac||}}}}</nowiki>}}.
* Named font templates are not used in the PSM project
* Link to the [[Help:Beginner's guide to typography#100% and smaller font size and style comparisons table|100% and smaller font size and style comparisons table]].

=== Titles ===

* Articles' main titles are set by templates. [[User:Ineuw/TPSM_Proofreading_guide#PSM_article_title_templates|See list of title templates in the Reference section at the end.]]

(contracted; show full)

* Main article title anchors are always "1" as their order of appearance because two main article titles never appear on the same page.
* Recurring monthly section title order of appearance is "0", as in 
'''{{color|blue|<nowiki>{{anchor|D437-0}}</nowiki>'''}} If there are two recurring sections on a page, (which can happen), the second is identified with two zeros, "00" as in '''{{color|blue|<nowiki>{{anchor|D437-00}}</nowiki>'''}}. The reason for this is that recurring monthly section titles can fall between two anchored paragraphs of two different sections which always follow the order of appearance rule. [link to example]
* Recurring monthly sections can have several anchors on the same page and they are numbered in their order of appearance from top to bottom As in '''{{color|blue|<nowiki>{{anchor|D437-1}}</nowiki>, <nowiki>, {{anchor|D437-2}}</nowiki>, etc.'''}},regardless of which section they belong to [link to example]

=== Volume index anchors ===

* Volume index anchors are generated from the same database as the article titles. Since their order of appearance on the page is not known, they are always assigned "1". After the titles are anchored, 50% to 60% percent of the links are correct and the rest are edited while the index is in edit preview mode, which permits editing and testing the link simultaneously.
