Very interesting images, but what does the RGB / brightness exactly show in these images, could your please explain.

If,  for example Daiin, the brightness shows the left position, the image can not be correct because daiin does not have preferred position at the beginning of lines.

Brightness corresponds to greater prevalence in a given position.

Here are new grayscale images for [daiin] in Currier A and B, side by side.

It's the image for Currier B that shows a bright peak at the left of lines and the vertical center of paragraphs.  If I'm reading my spreadsheets correctly, in Currier B, about 30% of tokens of [daiin] are the first vord in a line; about 8.5% are the last vord in a line; and about 61.5% fall somewhere in the middle of the line.  In all of Currier B, by contrast, about 11.5% of vords are first or last in their lines, while about 77% fall somewhere in the middle.  So [daiin] does seem significantly overrepresented in the first line position in Currier B.  The image suggests that this overrepresentation is also limited to the vertical center of the paragraph.  

I haven't double-checked that, but if it's true, then the anomaly would be even stronger than the line-position statistics would suggest by themselves.

 could you find a way to merge these with the following:   horizontal line size in amount of words and/or vertical line size in amount of words ?
