Hi Andrew,
here comes some info from a German. There might be some official guidelines where to put the euro-sign in a currency format, but in real life it doesn't matter if it is in front or behind the amount. Important is the "." as delimiter for thousands and "," as decimal delimiter. Sometimes we use EUR for the Euro when the � is not available (price labels). As we have the euro as the only legal currency, the German Mark is only useful for historical circumstances (as said before Note: Your quotation is right).
