Abbreviation logic

Plugin rule colour. Read the rule name as well as the dot.

Avellio notices: A supported abbreviation pattern raises a spacing or convention question.

Example to inspect: An abbreviation separated awkwardly from its following value

Possible editorial outcome: The intended abbreviation and value remain readable together

Why review it: An abbreviation’s periods and separators can be mistaken for sentence punctuation.

When to keep or investigate: Specialist notation, initials, quoted sources and house style can differ from a general convention.

Your next step: Read the full phrase and inspect the exact evidence. Change spacing or punctuation only when the intended abbreviation is clear.

Verify: inspect the edited text again with the intended scope and policy. Check meaning and nearby composition; a review status alone does not prove a correction.

In the plugin — Review in context: Review the abbreviation and its spacing in context. This recommendation does not edit text; verify context, make a deliberate change in InDesign if appropriate, then inspect again.
