I did some rough calculations. Assuming the page to be 23.5cm high, this works out at 3368 pixels high.
The cube is 63 mm between its two long edges.
The "u" in SAU thus works out to be 8.5 pixels high, or 0.6mm high. That's pretty tiny....
The 8 glyph works out at 19 pixels, or 1.32 mm tall. It's very slightly taller than the "o" glyph in the vord above the cube. So the "u" would be half the height of the "o" glyph.
By way of comparision, 12 point Times New Roman is roughly 4.23 mm when printed onto paper.
@Koen - I'm normally skeptical about vague images found in the VMS. I've debunked a few of them. But this one.... seems pretty solid, and certainly merits further investigation.
But - the font used is all uppercase, and the A is almost modern in its style. It's a fair cry from any other handwriting used in the MS.
