[RDA-L] Transcription and spacing

2013-05-28 Thread Heidrun Wiesenmüller
The other day, we were discussing the rules for transcription in 1.7. We wondered how exact an exact transcription has to be according to the standard rule of RDA. When it says as it appears on the source, does this also refer to spacing? There is one explicit rule for spacing (1.7.6), but
