I'm reviewing a manuscript with a two column layout that has line numbers on the left margin of the page, but not on the right. Like this:
How do I efficiently and effectively reference a particular line in the manuscript? Is there a standard way of doing it?
Currently I write "P1 C1 L12" to refer to page 1, left column, line 12.

You can also count up from the bottom if it is more convenient (when the ref is closer to the bottom): P1, C2, L-3

@Buffy I would very strongly recommend against counting up when line numbers are present.

@BryanKrause, You are correct, of course. But the other works if they are not, though the question implies they are.

Use whatever protocol you like, but explain your protocol to the editor and authors. For example, you could include something like the following (quoting from someone else's review of one of my own papers):
Throughout this review, "p.5(17)" refers to line 17 on page 5.

I'm not aware of a standard, but you can always define your own notation in your report. Perhaps some journals do have a recommended standard in their reviewer instructions, but I don't remember seeing that either.
If you want to go compact, I'd suggest "p1, R12" for page 1, right column (L for left), where 12 is understood to be the line number. That is, there are probably few enough columns that there isn't a need to have a running number for them...
