    After like 5 tries and squinting and using my finger to block lines as I went along, I managed to verify for myself that it does in fact have the proper amount of lines.

      It’s not just the correct amount of lines but connections between the lines are actually there, if they should be that is, if you look closely.

        Wow. You really had to zoom in for that one. +2 to the artist for such attention to detail.

    I get very anxious when someone starts such a long word so far to the right* of the page.

    * obviously only for LTR direction

    Well, that’s why you add dots and stuff over the letters so it becomes “easy” to distinguish. Example Kurrent script:

    This, ladies and gentlemen, is what makes transcribing some very olde texts REALLY fucking hard.
