Newer scans may be darker/lighter, so there can be perfect match in sense of coordinates, but no exact match when comparing pixel to pixel.This is effectively solved by comparing lightness values and computing the correlation coefficient. This is relatively insensitive to such colour effects.

Shame that they decided to share some of their work but not all making things that they shared useless
By the way, I had a look at your solution. You certainly put a lot of careful work into it but I'm sorry to say that I'm unconvinced:
"Came to dark forms. Destroying abundant satire, creating small animation.
Composed diminution, adding plainness. Diminutive word added, giving
even names. Added diminution, giving up another odiousness.
Severity. Creating acuteness, malevolent creating. Adding
witty comedy. Came to slow kindness.
Producing boldness, creating a lot of acuteness, producing allegories.
Revealed boringness. Have no other sharpness.
To odiousness. Creating numerous needles. Creating liveliness. Produced
uniformness.
Put away. Spicing evenness. Came to another sadness. Animating another
firmness."
It sounds like some modern artist talking on acid. And I'm a simple guy, I still believe that these
pages with plant drawings are just a medieval herbal

Register or Login to view.Why satiric versus religious or some alchemical-astrological hocus-pocus, or a difficult hausbuch and pharmacopeia? To what images do you refer? Granted that the whole "large plant portion" of the VMs has thus far failed to produce any herbal connections. What other folios of the text have been considered?
I believe the significance of the so-called 'Stolfi's markers' has been overlooked. There are markers in the cosmic section, in the zodiac sequence, and in the nine rosettes. Clearly, they function as markers of text segments. They do exist in several pattern variations, so there can be various potential combinations.
Does the circular text on the VMs cosmos say anything cosmic?
Do the elaborate markers, used in the VMs zodiac (White Aries & Cancer) have a special significance?
Do the circles around the Moon contain a prayer to the Virgin Mary?
Who knows??? It was the Middle Ages.
