Hi Verner, What I'm trying to determine is whether you could put the symbol on the book and have a null effect. Similar to when I publish a C-Tick symbol in my manuals. Only Australia uses that symbol, so it has a null effect for any other country. Therefore, it can go in every manual and I don't have to create a new, Australia-only, version of the manual. If the IVD symbol won't signify anything in other countries, then you'd be safe to put it on and print for all countries. But if it indicates compliance with a standard that has *not* been met in other countries, then I think you'd have to create a different manual for the US market only. - Susan
