VMs: Colour analysis of language pages??

["The Grove Family" <4groves@xxxxxxxxx>]

	Silly thought folks.

		I still see a slight difference in the ink colouring between the A and B
languages, so I tried a little cross-hair colour-picker tool to see if it's
just my eyes or not. It may be an artefact of the scanning process - I don't
know; I am not a graphics expert. Anyway, with a few samples I found that
the light coloured (as opposed to the darker re-inkings or corrections?)
'text' ink on A pages falls in a range of B6.... to B9.... (hex) for most
snippets (although there is a lot of variation at the pixel level); On B
pages the light colour seems to fall between 91.... and 93....

		Another thought... The outline of images seems to use a different ink in
both A and B pages as well? Maybe, I'm making this happen because I want to
see a difference -  which is why I'd like to know if there are any experts
out there that could do some kind of colour analysis of a number of words
from A languages compared to B languages; then grab some of the outlines
from A pages and B pages and do the same. IF there is a consistent
difference between A and B then it might actually mean something... however,
if the difference is sporadic at best or non-existent it doesn't prove a
thing except that I'm seeing things.

		DAI -- Any chance that somebody has clipped out samples of the EVA letters
dai from a variety of pages and compared the writing by overlays? Distance
between characters, angle of strokes, number of times the pen was lifted...
I can see where a few dai strings actually look more like the 'd' is
separated by a full space (possibly only evident when looking at the SIDS),
but I'm not looking for a definition of what a space is - I'm looking for
evidence of different writing style that shows up with a fair degree of
consistency. One page, I found quite interesting lately is f17v. It seems to
me that the scribe here is an apprentice... Many of the gallows are doubled
on the right side (no other letters are affected with this problem; however,
the 'n' stroke occasionally has a forked tongue). Again, I don't think this
represents a different character because the actual size of the page would
make it difficult to distinguish - I'm just looking at it as though this
particular page was written by someone trying out the script (especially the
gallows) for the first time.

	John.
