Abstract
For the study of deep inelastic scattering at HERA, the use of Jaquet-Blondel variables is advantageous in several respects. We calculate the complete leptonic QED corrections for the reaction in these variables. All but one phase space integrations are performed analytically. After exponentiation of soft photon corrections, an accuracy of at least 1% is matched. Numerical results are presented and compared to estimates based on the leading logarithmic approximation. Equation (17) is corrected in accordance with equation (7.44) of DESY 94--115. The misprint did not influence the numerics.

Comments
9 pages, 1 figure, 1 table; Corrected Eq. (17) in the paper published in Phys. Lett. B301: 447-453, 1993, the numerics are unaffected by this misprint
