Mfgr förekommer på flera ställen i dokumentet, så därför blev jag lite misstänksam. Men det verkar ju plausibelt med tillverkare, kanske bäst att fråga kunden trots allt. Kanske skrivfel och skulle ha varit \"mfcr\"?\"

Answer: I don\'t know where the \"g\" came from, but \"mfgr\" is the standard abbreviation for manufacturer (Googling will confirm), not with a \"c\", but with a \"g\". The British do the most unexpected things. I find it most charming in my wife.
