Four plates overhung the measure and displaced into the right margin.
On those pages the original interrupts a displayed quotation with a
plate (p0129/30/31/32, p0217/18, p0386/87), so \plateop ran inside
extract's \addmargin, where the paragraph is set by \parshape to
\linewidth — while the minipage was built at \textwidth. The quotation
indents 0.5in + 0.3in, so the overhang was exactly 0.8in, which is also
\marginparwidth; that coincidence made it look like a marginnote fault
for a long time. \plateop, \plate and \fig now build at \linewidth,
correct in any context and unchanged on the other 174 plates.
Also: \mdseries on the three \bnsignfont cells of the Scheme of
Transliteration, which inherited the table's \bfseries and asked for a
bold Tiro Bangla that does not exist.
The build log is now clean — no overfull boxes, no font warnings. The
remaining underfulls are the documented cost of ragged right with
hyphenation off.
Docs: PLAN.md's Type row carried four stale values (11pt, 5.2in measure,
leading 1.22, hyphenation on) and now records the measured leading and
its derivation; CLAUDE.md's macro table documents \chapstart's optional
short title and \toclnp; QUESTIONS.md splits the quotation slips by
whether the source can be consulted at all — five are unpublished
archive material and are a record, not a task.

A searchable, re-typeset edition of Fiona Ross, "The Evolution of the
Printed Bengali Character from 1778 to 1978" (Ph.D., SOAS, 1988),
transcribed from the 431-leaf ProQuest scan. All 431 pages done; 178
plates and 410 inline type specimens cut from the scan; 51 errata.
Tracked: the transcription (src/pages), the preamble and its typographic
decisions, the cut images (plates/ — not reliably regenerable, the crop
specs for the inline cuts were never scripted), tools, and the four
working documents.
Not tracked: the built PDF, which `make` remakes from src/ and plates/;
the ProQuest scan under source/, which is third-party and needed only by
`make prep` and `make plate`; scans/ and work/, both regenerable.
