Evidence

"chemical components of the pigments in the border-lines have reacted and damaged paper fibers making the area weak and brittle, causing tears and chars especially in the areas near the spine where paper is under more stress."

Remarks

The manuscript measures 23.6 cm x 37.5 cm with a text area of 15.8 cm x 28.2 cm (p. 44). The original binding is lost; the current leather binding is described as too tight, contributing to stress and damage near the spine (p. 57).
