Quebec...Question writing sign PAPA

[Gagnon et Thibeault]

Hi Val and everyone,

    Yes, I can see the white attached diagram (not high contrast or white on 
black).

    Thank you very much for the Contact Star near the Thumb.

    Do you have different rules for symbols (example of the Contact Star and 
others)?  If yes, would you give me the link address ?

    Regards,

    André
