The lacquer cuts can be identified by "PF" (or occasionally "PFANZ", see España Olé) in the matrix/runout etchings. In such cases Lacquer Cut By - G. F. Pfanz + ANV PF and Lacquer Cut At - Tonstudio Pfanz should be used. However, in some rare cases the etched PF looks significantly different (see images here and here). In these cases, only use Lacquer Cut At, because the disc was most likely cut by another staff member of the studio.

Der Musikmarkt Branchenhandbuch edition 1992 denotes Hans Dethlof as 'Studio Technician'.
Occasionally, a full length etched Alfred Nierhoff credit can be found together with the PF credit.
