Note:
A possible cause for confusion is the pharma folios viz:
f101r  and You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
f101v1- foldout sometimes classed as 2 folios, sometimes just one You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. ie TT-ivtff-0a

Here i have ['f101r', 'f101v' ] and not counted  'f101r2' --Is that an error or not...discuss Smile
I counted 101r and 101v as two pages each for scribe 1 and 115r both for scribe 2 and 3 (because of first 12 lines).

Thanks.
Looks good to me!
