If you spend a lot of time copying text from PDFs into Word like me, I hope this tip might be useful! If the PDF ends up broken up over lots of lines, there's no need to fix it manually. Just go to find and replace, type ^p into find, and one space into replace. Pics below :)

One of our curators recently asked, "Is this the greatest page from any medieval manuscript?" So today's challenge: what is in fact the #greatestpage? We'd love your suggestions. Add MS 11695, f. 240r (Silos Apocalypse) #twitterstorians
