Curious omission in IFAB LOTG

IFAB's web page for the current LOTG, Law 17, Corner Kick, 1. Procedure, the first line is --

The ball must be placed in the corner area​

http://www.theifab.com/#!/laws/the-corner-kick/chapters/the-corner-kick-procedure

If you follow the suggestion and download the PDF, it reads

The ball must be placed in the corner area nearest to the point where the ball passed over the goal line​

Everything else in the Corner Kick portion seems to match in the two versions.
