Have you considered doing this: remove all spaces, ambiguous or otherwise, to get a continuous stream of characters. Then use techniques of statistical analysis to determine the frequency and spread of character pairs, 3-character sequences. If you were to do this for each folio you would then be able to determine which folios are close in language. Then determine how statistically significant your results are. Will the results indicate consistency in language, or will they show something that is outside of what would be expected by statistical variance?
