"Tikkun Kor'im-Simanim" is another popular source for Torah readers. See Figure 9 below for a sample text. It has features not found in "Tikkun Lakor'im", such as distinguishing sheva na' ( ְ ), which is bolder than sheva nach ( ְ ), which is not rendered bold.
For example, on line 7 in Figure 9 and 9a below look at the vowel under the lamed ( ל ) in the 2nd and 3rd words. The first lamed ( ל ) is pointed with the bolded sheva na' ( ְ ), and the 2nd lamed ( ל ) is pointed with the unbolded sheva nach ( ְ ).
Kamatz katan ( ׇ ), with its longer stem is distinguished from kamatz gadol ( ָ ), with its shorter stem.
For example, examine the first word on line 2 in Figure 9 and 9a below. The vowel under the koof ( ק ) is kamatz katan ( ׇ ) whereas the vowel under the bet ( בּ ) is kamatz gadol ( ָ ).
Between the column with the vowels and the column without the vowels, the verses are numbered with Hebrew letters used as numbers, such as מב [42], מג [43], מד [44], etc. This feature makes this tikkun a little harder for a novice Torah reader to find their place.
A Torah reader usually learns a Torah portion by mastering one verse at a time by training on the "vowel" side and then testing themselves on the "Torah" side of a tikkun page. The text of each line in the left-hand column (without vowels) matches the text in the corresponding line in the right-hand column. This feature makes it a little easier to train for a Torah reading than the "Tikkun Lakor'im text described in the last section.
The pre-positive t'lisha g'dolah ta'am ( ֠ ) and all the post-positive t'lishah k'tanah ( ֩ ), pashta ( ֙ ), zarka ( ֘ ), segol ( ֒ ) te'amim are doubled when the word's stressed syllable is not the final one.
If one understands Hebrew, there are helpful marginalia that illuminate features about the text that might not be obvious otherwise, such as how repeated words or phrases may have the same or different te'amim, or which verses are used in a holiday Torah reading. All of these extra features combine to create an excellent resource for both the novice and experienced Torah reader.
