Don, paleography is broad and deep. You can spend your life studying a 50-year time period in one region and not run out of things to discover, so the answer to your question is, sort of...
I am far more familiar with glyph styles from the late 14c and 15c than I am with earlier writing styles. I can read the earlier ones but I can't just glance at them and say, this is probably from [this area or this time period] which I can with some of the 15th-century manuscripts.
Also, scribes moved around. In fact, some were like doctors and teachers, traveling and offering their services was their lifestyle, so some of the regional differences had more to do with who went where than with where something was created. St. Gall, for example, was regularly staffed by monks from England (Bury St. Edmunds, for example). Students from Lombardy, Heidelberg, and Paris regularly traveled to Naples. Which means... it often takes years of dedicated detective work to unsnarl where something was created because they brought their scribal habits with them, but sometimes partially adapted to local scribal traditions.
I know enough to recognize certain patterns in early 15th-century manuscripts, but only from some areas. If you asked me to summarize patterns for the England, Bavaria, Veneto, or Provençe, I could probably give a reasonable answer. If you asked me the same question about western France, it would take a lot of study (maybe as much as a couple of years) before I could make any kind of reasonable answer.
