Fig. 7

Comparison of images of a transverse parchment patch from the control volume as taken by digital camera (a) and acquired by CT, processed by LOGISMOS (b). Figure 7a is a detail of Fig. 2b above, showing the transverse patch between the first and second stitching stations on the Left. Note that the second line of (a) contains a faint red majuscule F that is more clearly visible in (b), and an additional letter of roughly the same size in (b) that is not visible in (a). An example (c) of a lowercase uncial letter D (in a word beginning “dep-”), ca. 1195–1210 CE from Vienna ÖNB Cod. 2554, fol. 1r, lin. 1; the same example reversed (d).
