This DVD-ROM contains a full facsimile with images of each page of the manuscript, visible at high magnification, and a complete 'live' transcription of the text with hyperlinks allows for powerful global searches across the entire text. It contains: full-colour high resolution images of the entire manuscript; simultaneous view of entire page and selected detail of the page, with a full page description; life-like magnifier, movable across the page, activated by clicking on the facsimile, allowing detailed viewing; specialist essays on contents, production, decoration, and language.

System requirements: Microsoft Windows XP or higher ; Mac OS X 10.3+ ; RAM: 1 GB (minimum) ; Screen resolution: recommended minimum 1024 x 768 ; DVD-ROM drive. The data includes a report about current functionality issues, though users should note that, for optimum performance, the dataset should be downloaded to a computer's HARD DRIVE (rather than a NETWORK DRIVE) and that the programme works best when opened in Microsoft Edge
