Glossary entry (derived from question below)
German term or phrase:
für das Layout verantwortlich (f.d.L.v.)
English translation:
responsible for the layout
German term
f.d.l.v.
It could be obvious as soon as I "see" it, but I'm stumped.
It follows the Herausgeber & Medieninhaber info for a DE>EN relief org brochure.
Any clues?
Thanks!

| Hey, ladies and gentlemen, you are gems. I do think a typo-quirk is at work here, as in, the typist was trying to keep the period from becoming an upper case " : " and... there ya go. I will offer both to the client, so they can clarify. But I have added both of these very helpful entries to my glossaries for future reference.

The L should indeed be upper case, but is some sort of typographical quirk at play here? This PDF uses lower case l http://www.wienxtra.at/wienXtra/pdf/chortage.pdf but I can't see what else it could mean. Surely one of these letters must refer to a noun?

| Thanks, Kim - you always come through! My only problem is that the abbreviation is FDLV, not FDIV. (That lower case "l" looks like an I, I know...) Hmmm... |
