Scribal intervention: words of text are written interlinearly (folss. 22v, 59v, 106v, 122v, , etc.); and lines of text are written interlinearly (47r, 49v, 94v, 138r, , etc.); erasure markings are visible (24v, ); text has been removed (e.g., 80v, 171v ).
-
The scribe regularly has to complete a line of text on another line. Much of the problem is addressed through the selection of an appropriate aspect ratio for the codex combined with an appropriate script size. But, where the line of text is still too long, the scribe completes the line of text above the end of the line (throughout).
