Does anybody know a standard (ISO,ANSI or other) for calling out two features with the same dimension. My company uses (0.0613 TYP 2PLCS) or (0.613 x2) for two different holes with the same diameter. I have not been able to find an exact standard. does one exist? Or, is this a matter of preference?

Yes, ANSI Y14.5 (among others in the series) covers this. Generally, the x2 method is preferred over "TYP.", and in general with either method, the multiple instances should be clear from the drawing, i.e. no ambiguity.
