Overview of the Work Orders to Formax in 2008
Work Order I
13 texts (three in batch 1 and ten in batch 2)
DESpecs 1.1.2
- Diversae "Conimbricenses In Universam dialecticam" (1606)
- Special Instructions: <tf> tag for separate text flows, <q> and <a> tags for anchored comments.
- Benedetti, Giovanni Battista de "Diversarvm specvlationvm mathematicarum, et physicarum liber" (1585)
- Should be straightforward, since many examples in the specs are taken from Benedetti.
- Number notation, for example .4.: The rules for punctuation apply, we will see what happens.
- Complex fractions: Probably only in figures
- Euclid "Elementorum Libri XV" (1607)
- text in red: there is a rule for red text in version 1.1.2
- additional ligatures, e.g. _{$p}_: Will be added to version 1.2. For now, we will just see what happens.
- Aristoteles "Quaestiones Mechanicae" (1585)
- minor problem: skewed text (problem of the digitalization)
- minor problem: swashes. Testcase: See what they make out of swashes.
- minor problem: p.25: some letters are printed badly
- ∫ with tilde, followed by m: {secundu}m
- Casati, Paolo "De igne" (1686)
- index at the end, which is easy to type (no problem with right-aligned page numbers)
- Ghetaldi, Marino "Promotus Archimedis seu de varijs corporum generibus gravitate et magnitudine comparatis" (1603)
- Asterisks as anchors for marginal notes, not repeated in the note itself. Add as a note to the section about marginal notes.
- Mersenne, Marin "Questions physico-mathematiques" (1635)
- French
- Special rule (two lines): type only complete pages, do not pages that are cut off
- Heron Alexandrinus "De gli automati : ouero machine semoventi, libri due" (1589) (change to 1601 edition!)
- p.6: ornamental boundaries
- ij ligature that looks like y with umlaut
- p.92: similar to the anchored comments in the Conimbricenses?
