Hi Stephan,
Elaine Gould (Behind bars - Ed. Faber Music) wrote 2 pages on Da Capo and Dal
Segno layouts.
Her recommandation is to add the term 'al Fine ' below the 'D.C' term. No
more...
But from the example, we can see (page 238) that this markup is written below
the staff, in italic and is aligned at the right of the end bar.
HTH
The best,
Rémy
