Both scan problems reported from testing came from the same place: the
content rectangle defaulted to the whole page, so the mechanism meant
to handle margin junk never engaged. Ketun joululaulu has a vertical
scan streak down the right margin and Engel a shadow, and because trim
is tight and per slice, either one sets that slice's width, which sets
the song's widest slice, which scales the whole song down.
Detection can propose it. Staff lines are long horizontal runs; scan
shadows, spine darkening and glass streaks are vertical, so a wide flat
opening keeps one and erases the other. Three corrections were needed
against the corpus:
- Search only rows inside detected systems. A horizontal artefact above
or below the music is itself a long horizontal run reaching the paper
edge, which put Engel's left bound at 0.
- Take a percentile of the staff-line extents, not the maximum. Where
an artefact touches a staff line the two merge into one component: on
Ketun p2 the merged line ends at 1575px against 1544px on the clean
page.
- Take the left bound from the brackets too. A bracket sits left of
every staff line, so a staff-line bound crops it off — visible
immediately when comparing exported slices.
Anchors are now a dataclass carrying their left edge rather than a
(top, bottom) tuple.
Engel now drops 12-14% of page width and its music fills 1920px instead
of leaving the shadow's dead space; Ketun drops 12%.
Existing projects keep their saved rectangle; the editor's new Auto-fit
and Auto-fit all buttons re-propose it without disturbing cuts.
QGraphicsView for the viewport, with cuts and the content rectangle
manipulated by hit-testing in the view rather than as movable items —
the geometry is normalised, so what the screen shows and what the
renderer uses are the same numbers at a different zoom.
Cuts are edited as polylines: double-click adds one, drag moves it,
Ctrl-click inserts a vertex, right-click deletes a vertex or the whole
cut. That is how a straight cut becomes the stepped cut Engel needs.
Slice boundaries are drawn, not just cut lines, so a trim anomaly is
visible before export rather than after. Discarded slices are shaded.
Pages preview at 1800px regardless of source resolution, cached per
page, because re-reading a 4959x7017 vector render on every slider move
is unusable.
Autosave is debounced at 800ms and also fires on close.

Project state plus PDF in, finished slice images out. Slices are cut as
polygons rather than row ranges, so a stepped cut yields a slice with a
transparent notch instead of one that covers its neighbour.
Masking paints white, which the ink-to-alpha step turns into full
transparency — the same outcome the spec asks for, one step earlier.
Scale normalises every slice to the median staff height before fitting
the song to 1920px, so a rescanned page sits at the same note size as
its neighbours. The cap only ever shrinks: a song narrower than 1920
stays narrower.
Alpha quantisation rounds to 16 values spanning 0-255 inclusive.
Flooring, as first written, capped full ink at 240 and left every note
6% transparent — caught by decoding an exported slice rather than by
reading the code.
Ketun joululaulu exports 24 slices at a uniform 1489px, under the cap
and correctly not upscaled from its 200 DPI source; Feliz Navidad 20;
Elaman nalka 18.

Everything the human decides, in normalised page coordinates so the
file is independent of DPI and of which renderer produced it. The
bundle will be generated from this, which is what makes re-export
possible without repeating human work.
Cuts are polylines from the start, two points being the ordinary
straight case, so the stepped cuts Engel needs are a data question
rather than a migration. Adding a cut splits a slice and copies its
discard flag to both halves; removing one merges them.
Boundary cuts belong here rather than in detection: detection emits
cuts only between systems, so a page would have exactly as many slices
as systems, with the header and footer inside the first and last.
Isolating and discarding them is a slicing decision.
Saves are write-then-rename, so a crash mid-save cannot destroy the
previous state. The PDF is hashed, not copied, so an edit underneath is
reported rather than silently re-cut.
Ketun joululaulu now yields 24 kept slices over 12 pages and Feliz
Navidad 20 over 4, with headers and footers discarded on every page.

Feliz Navidad exposed two assignment faults. Each bracket was expanding
independently, so a lyric line between two systems could be claimed by
both, producing overlapping extents. And nearest-bracket is the wrong
rule: engravers space lyrics generously, so a line sits 43px under its
own system's bracket but only 10px above the next one's.
Now one pass assigns every run exactly once: ink overlapping a bracket
belongs to it, and otherwise the system above wins over the system
below. Text under a staff belongs to that staff.
Known limit, documented in _assign: where a lyric is printed tight
enough that no blank row separates it from the next system's staves,
the two fuse into one ink run and no row profile can split them. The
lyric goes to the system below and the cut lands ~90px high. Dragging
it is the fix.
Feliz Navidad now reads 5 systems on every page, staff 70px, with no
overlapping extents; Ketun joululaulu, Engel and Elaman nalka are
unchanged.
Systems anchor on the vertical bracket and expand over nearby ink, per
ADR 0006. Two corrections the corpus forced:
- Expansion measures distance from the bracket, never from the growing
extent. A chaining expansion hops between the closely-stacked lines of
a title block and walks the whole way up the page — on Engel p1 it
swallowed the title into system 1 and the copyright footer into
system 3.
- Reach is 1.5 staff heights, which takes in the lyrics below the last
staff and the tempo mark and INTRO box above the first, while leaving
the title block and footer out.
Verified against the corpus. Ketun joululaulu: 2 systems per page except
p7 (3) and p12 (1), staff 48px throughout, skew -2.7 to +1.2 per page,
and p2 system 1 spans 179-1071 where its bracket is 177-994 — the
difference being the bottom voice's lyric line. Engel: 2-3 systems per
page, staff 70-72px. Elaman nalka: 3 systems per page, 0 skew, staff
118px at 600 DPI.
The overlay dump is what made both bugs visible, and stays as the tool
for diagnosing a page that comes out wrong.

The pdf module is the whole of M1 except the debug overlay, which needs
detection results to draw.
Source type is detected per PDF by looking for a page-covering image,
and is always reported for confirmation rather than applied silently
(ADR 0004). Rasters are extracted via Pixmap(doc, xref) rather than by
decoding extract_image() bytes, because MuPDF handles JBIG2 and CCITT
scans that no image library will.
Scanned pages are extracted at the embedded image's native resolution;
only vector pages are rendered, at 600 DPI. Verified against the corpus:
Elaman nalka (vector) renders 4959x7017, Ketun joululaulu (scan) loads
1653x2332, Engel (scan) 2552x3504 — and Engel's page 2 is 2480 wide
where page 1 is 2552, so scan width varies within one PDF.
tests/test_pdf.py builds its own PDFs so the check runs without corpus
files, which are copyrighted and gitignored.
