1One PDF holding BOTH Bd III and Bd IV (340 pages). A second archive.org identifier (diealtaegyptisch03sethuoft) is the SAME Toronto/Robarts scan re-derived — its PDF keywords name the original item — and is staged beside this one as sethe_1908_bd03-04_pyramidentexte.pdf with its OCR text layer.
2340 pages; 1 file(s); 25,959,743 bytes on disk at the path in the `# file:` header.
3THE PAGE IMAGES ARE NOT IN THIS REPOSITORY. This document is a provenance stub (kind = scan): the edition is staged under Coptic OCR/corpus/incoming/, with hashes and the full download record in the README beside it. Nothing here has been OCR'd, transliterated or translated, so there is no L0 text, no L0.5, no L1 and no L2 yet.
4Page concordance (E-3): pdf 11–124 = printed 1–114; pdf 126–166 = printed 115–155; pdf 171–194 = printed 156–179; pdf 202–332 = printed 2–132. Breaks: after pdf 124 (unnumbered leaves (plates/blanks) or a skipped sequence); after pdf 166 (unnumbered leaves (plates/blanks) or a skipped sequence); after pdf 194 (numbering restarts (a new volume or part in the same file)).

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
L0.5 transliteration
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).
L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
