Hi Kieren,

Thanks for looking up the engraving rules.
According to Gould — which is, nowadays, the musical analogue of “according to 
Hoyle” — the *tie* should be adjusted and not the *dot*.
So Boosey & Hawkes’s style is not the convention, but rather an editorial quirk.


I tweaked Lilypond's ties and they look ok now with the dots 'up'. But I must admit that I like the dotsDown when there is a fermata.

Greetings, Ed
