Nobody should have tried to write cursive numbers. That’s just a recipe for disaster

And I thank you for not being one of them. 👍

I’m still staring at exactly what I posted over an hour ago, and I’m still half scratching my head…

Those aren’t cursive. You missed the minus sign on the cylinder corrections.

i disagree. I’ve seen many examples of the zero with the leading line into it, it’s a weird cursive habit.

The zero in the left axis field does not have that leading line, nor do the two zeros in the dates. The other four zeros have such a line connected to the zero, but in two cases, it’s the horizontal crossbar from the 5, and in two cases, it’s a minus sign. Both horizontal strokes from left to right, leading into the top of the zero.

Spherical and cylindrical corrections would have an explicit sign, positive or negative. If they intended a positive correction, there would be a plus sign.

Those are definitely minus signs.
