Squeeze Paper Squeeze Dimension Distortion Corrector: Correct squeeze (paper cast) dimensions back to stone-face dimensions by removing an assumed linear shrinkage or expansion of the paper.
When to use Squeeze Paper Squeeze Dimension Distortion Corrector
Use this epigraphic utility to apply a stated parsing, transcription, measurement, dating, classification, or documentation rule consistently while preparing inscriptions for scholarly review.
- Squeeze width
- Measured squeeze width in centimetres.
- Squeeze height
- Measured squeeze height in centimetres.
- Distortion
- Assumed linear distortion of the paper, in percent.
- Mode
- Whether the paper contracted or expanded relative to the stone face.
How Squeeze Paper Squeeze Dimension Distortion Corrector works
Correct squeeze (paper cast) dimensions back to stone-face dimensions by removing an assumed linear shrinkage or expansion of the paper. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.1
- Corrected width
- Distortion-corrected width in centimetres.
- Corrected height
- Distortion-corrected height in centimetres.
Limitations and assumptions
- Coverage or condition classifications from images are sensitive to lighting, scale, segmentation, moisture, salts, biology, prior treatment, and hidden deterioration. They do not replace examination and treatment decisions by a qualified conservator.
- Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.
Alternative or Complementary approaches
Retain the photograph, squeeze or scan, diplomatic transcription, provenance, dimensions, uncertainty marks, and corpus identifiers with the result. Confirm ambiguous cases against the relevant corpus, Leiden conventions, parallel inscriptions, and specialist judgment.
