• Corpus references, formula detectors, measurements, and classifiers depend on the edition, language, script, abbreviation practice, text normalization, and preservation state. Automated output should remain linked to the diplomatic transcription and image evidence.
• 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.

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.
