[mpeg-OTspec] Edited version of the OFF 3rd edition WD

Hi Sairus, all,

Please take a look at the attached (edited) version of the working draft. Due to the fact that "OpenType" is a registered trademark, it cannot be used in the ISO document (this is the primary reason why ISO spec is called OFF and not OpenType). I made some editorial changes to what Sairus has originally proposed (the changes related to TTC file structure) - in order to keep the spec clear I decided to use a generic "Font Collection" term and added an editorial note explaining the relationship between TTC and OTC. As a result, the existing subclause detailing the structure of TTC remains unchanged.
I edited the "Filenames" section of "Recommendations" as Sairus suggested and also added a new section in the end of the "Recommendations" moving the existing Note from the spec proper to it.

Please review the text and let me know if this is acceptable. Once I have your okay on the recent edits I will submit this updated text to ISO.

Thank you,
Vlad
