Welcome to News & Tips!
Welcome to the first edition of News & Tips, your source for updates on the Interinstitutional Style Guide (ISG).
In each issue, we will keep you informed of key developments, highlight important changes and share practical tips to help you use the ISG more efficiently.
For a complete overview of recent updates, visit the News page.
Revised guidance on footnotes
Footnotes in EU publications are presented in an identical way in all 24 official languages to ensure consistency across all language versions. Section 8 has been revised to provide clear and aligned guidance.
Take note of the following key points.
- Footnote references have a figure in superscript between brackets: (1).
For repetitive footnotes, an asterisk between brackets is used: (*).
In very specific cases, a lower-case superscript letter between brackets may be used: (a). - Footnote references are always preceded by a non-breaking thin space and followed by the necessary punctuation.
- They are set in light roman, even when they appear in headings or texts written in italics or bold.
- Footnotes are generally numbered continuously (like in acts published in the Official Journal), though the numbering may also restart on each page.
- Footnote text always ends with a full stop, including when it ends with an internet address.
- If a footnote reference appears in a table, the corresponding footnote must be placed inside the frame of the table, not at the bottom of the page.
- Similarly, if different types of notes appear below a table or figure, they must be presented in the following order:
For full details, please consult Sections 8.1 and 8.2.
Polish: new spelling reform
On 1 January 2026, the latest Polish spelling and punctuation reform entered into force. The Polish ISG group prepared the update of the style guide in autumn 2025, and Part Four – especially Section 10 – now reflects the new rules.
The reform simplifies existing conventions, for example by:
- introducing consistent capitalisation of demonyms (Warszawianin), and most elements of public space (Kosciól Mariacki);
- standardising the lower-case spelling of adjectives derived from proper names (chopinowski);
- clarifying the writing of compounds and negative forms (nienajlepszy), alongside adjustments to prefixes, hyphenation and naming conventions.
You can consult the full set of updates in Section 10 or in the official Polish document ‘Zasady pisowni i interpunkcji polskiej’.
Currencies: one more Member State is using the euro
As of 1 January, Bulgaria’s currency is the euro, and no longer the lev. Bulgaria has thus joined the euro area. Section 7.3.2, Annex A5 and Annex A7 of the ISG have been updated accordingly.
Drafting tip. In English, use the official term ‘euro area’ and avoid other terms such as ‘euroland’ or ‘euro zone’. For other languages, see the relevant version of Section 7.3.1.
Bilingual view: a useful feature of the website
The bilingual view allows you to find easily the equivalent rule or information in another language.
Simply click the blue ‘Bilingual view’ button towards the top of the ISG pages.
You can display any two languages side by side. Click on the ‘x’ to return to your starting page.
Please note that this feature is available only in those parts of the ISG that are common to all 24 language versions (i.e. Sections 1 to 9).
