Base text for this edition of Othello uses public domain transcription by Moby Lexical Tools, 1992, converted into XML by Jon Bosak. Ligatured forms are not encoded. Missing and inferred stage directions added by the Riverside are indicated with square brackets.

Hyphenation has not been retained, except where necessary for the sense of the word.

Page breaks have been retained. Catchwords, signatures, running headers, and columns have not. Where pages break in the middle of a word, the complete word has been indicated prior to the page beginning. When it is unclear where a line ends, or whether the text is in prose or poetry, modern editions have been consulted.

Line breaks, numbering, stage directions, and textual emendations have been made to ensure that this edition corresponds with the Rivierside Shakespeare edition of Othello.
