[split] Jorge's Retracer Thread: darker ink, retracing of text and drawings

[oshfdk]

Not true, there are many examples of the first e in one ink and the second in a different ink.  Sometimes the ligature is fainter than both...

Good to know, but this is not inconsistent with an out of order scheme either, since ch can also be cKh, cTh, etc. Especially given there are cases of ct without h, etc.

Still, if the Author was writing straight from brain to vellum, with a complicated encryption that requires leaving blanks spaces to be filled later, we would expect many corrections, with cross-outs, insert-heres, etc.

We cannot know if there are corrections. Maybe daiin means ignore the last block and start over, who knows. Also, a scheme based on a grille or some similar method is not complicated at all. I tried it in another post, the hard part was creating a good grille which won't waste too much of the space on the page.
