Thanks for the samples. Basically all of them (except in the Franz
Strauss Notturno) look as if the breathing marks were added to the
already engraved plates... Honestly, I think that this is ugly and
not good engraving. However, it clearly shows that this symbol can be
positioned exactly on the bar if necessary :-)
