help guide for page layout symbols

Postby steltz » Mon Apr 30, 2012 6:33 am

Do we have a help guide for page layout symbols anywhere? Like colons for tabs, etc.

I'm having an issue with http://imslp.org/wiki/R%C3%AAverie,_Op. ... _Aleksandr) in the instrumentation field.

The wiki drops out any number of spaces over 1, so to get the orchestra line to line up with the solo line, 2 tabs doesn't go far enough, and 3 tabs goes too far. Is there a symbol for a mandatory space?

And should we have a guide for the other symbols?

I think that the MediaWiki formatting documentation would be a good reference:

To align text, table formatting may be especially useful:
