[Scriptoris] Multi-Kingdom Scribal "think-tank" discussion @ BAM

[Elaine]

I won't be able to go, but could someone pass along an idea I have  
had for a while?

The idea:
In the out-of the-margins area  of a printed scroll to be cut off,  
could the designer of the original please put an ABC set of the big  
and little letters used in the scroll? (Majuscules and minuscules,  
for those who only speak "calligraphy.")

This would help those who might not know the style of all the letters  
needed for the filling in of the scroll's blanks. That way, the  
recipient would have a nicer looking, more cohesive appearance to the  
lettering when they go to proudly hang it on their walls.

Besides, the cut off's alphabet examples would make an excellent  
reference strip for designing the lettering of an original, later.  
For lack of a better use, it would make a nice bookmark!  ; - )

YIS,
HL Lete Bithespring, Steppes, Ansteorra
