The claimed Voynich page

[eggyk]

Let's return to the parchment with the considerations of drawing experts: if we assume it was made before the manuscript was purchased by W.M. Voynich, whoever copied it had access to the original, the Voynich manuscript. The parchment has three obvious pinholes, plus one less visible but present one, at the four corners, which served to hold the sheet in place on a support (wood or cork). Procedure 1 - left-handed: manuscript on the right, tablet on the left, fingers of the right hand holding the manuscript and the tablet; 2 - right-handed: tablet above page 15 of the manuscript (beyond the manuscript, everything becomes more difficult), fingers of the left hand holding the manuscript and the tablet; 3 - right/left: tablet below the manuscript (above it would make no sense). 1 and 2 are more likely because the tablet can be aligned with the manuscript, and then skill (though not much, according to the experts) in drawing. Second question: why is the text less precise than the plant drawing? Everyone continues to think it's a document intended for translation, but that's never been the case! 

I appreciate your answer. Am I right in assuming that you believe this copy to be a freehand copy, then? 

If so, why copy everything approximately 10% smaller? Wouldn't this make the copying unnecessarily difficult, considering that the VMS is already rather small? There is plenty of extra space on the page to do so.
