Quire descriptions: quires 1-4, 6-12 balanced; quire 5 adjusted balanced., Binding: four Coptic chain stitches attached with bridle attachments to rough-hewn boards., Overlooked words of text are written interlinearly (f. 138v)., The scribe regularly has to complete a line of text on another line. Much of the problem is addressed through the selection of an appropriate aspect ratio for the codex combined with an appropriate script size. But, where the line of text is still too long, the scribe completes the line of text above the end of the line (e.g., ff. 1v, 2v, 3r, 4v, etc.). This scribe will also reduce the font size at the end of lines to avoid having to go onto the next line (e.g., ff. 55v and 57v).

Ff. 167r-171v: Gate of Light [Anqäṣä Bərhan]., Manuscript document. Title devised by cataloger., Item cataloged from existing description in Catalogue of the Ethiopic Manuscript Imaging Project: Volume 1, in which this manuscript is entered as EMIP 71., Quires: two protection quires + 17 full quires, quires 2, 4, 6-17 numbered, iv + 173 folios, 185 x 135 mm. Quire descriptions: quires 1-6, 8-17 balanced; quire 7 unbalanced., Overlooked words of text are written interlinearly (f. 90r); and overlooked lines of text are written interlinearly (f. 2v)., This scribe has avoided the problem of lines of text too long to fit on one line by adopting an aspect ratio that leaves ample room for the width of most lines. On a few occasions, the line would have been too long and the scribe finishes the end of the line with words written smaller so as to avoid leftover text (e.g., ff. 2v, 5r, 105v). Occasionally a line is still too long and has to be completed above or below the end of the line. In these cases, the scribe places the material above the line (e.g., ff. 47v, 50r, 60r, 65r, 87r, 107r, etc.) or below the line (e.g., ff. 50r and 65r)., Varia: F. iv: Quotation from Ps 114:3/116:3., Binding: four Coptic chain stitches attached with bridle attachments to rough-hewn boards.
