  GUIDANCE FOR ADAPTING THESE TEMPLATES
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

1. SHORTER IS USUALLY BETTER. A citation that fits in 3-4 lines on the
   plaque is easier to read from across the room. If your template runs
   long, cut.

2. KEEP HONORIFICS COMPLETE. Datuk, Datuk Seri, Datin, Datin Seri, Tan Sri,
   Tun, Yang Berbahagia, Yang Berhormat, Prof., Dr., Datu (Sarawak),
   Datin Patinggi (Sarawak), Tengku, Raja — all should be checked carefully
   against the recipient's official record.

3. BILINGUAL LAYOUTS. For BM-English bilingual, stack the BM line above
   the English line, or place side-by-side with a vertical divider.
   Either works. Keep total character count manageable so kerning stays
   clean.

4. JAWI SCRIPT. Available on request for state-government, royal-ceremony,
   and mosque-related citations. Send the BM line in Roman script and
   we'll produce the Jawi conversion before proofing.

5. MANDARIN CHARACTERS. Send the recipient's Chinese name in characters
   directly — don't transliterate from English. Pinyin alone often
   produces the wrong character. Same applies to Tamil.

6. PROOF EVERY LINE. We send a digital proof before production. Read it
   word by word, letter by letter. Catch issues there — once engraving
   is complete, the piece cannot be re-cut.
