Ink, Kosher vs. non-Kosher
We all know that there is no ancient source that requires ink to be מן המותר בפיך . Possibly, as said here before, because in the olden days ink was always מן המותר בפיך and the question was never raised. It was probably self-evident.

Question to Yosef Chaim B
Thank you for commenting on my ink article. In your comment you stated: "Many poskim disagree... Many rishonim have clearly stated the use of our ingredients." Would you please be kind enough to teach us (so I can include it in the article) which Poskim and what exactly and where did they say that the עפצים וקנקנתום type of ink is preferable over good quality דיו עשן that does not fail? We are not interested in biased פילפולים , or in those who said that דיו עשן is not being used because it fails easily or because it was not known how to make good quality דיו עשן.

gilyon 2 etzba(4 cm r' chaim noe) on top 3 etzba(6cmr' chaim noe )on bottom according to keset= total 10 cm gilyon,now gilyon may not be more than the ksav-usually 10 mm lines*11 lines should do-however gilyon might be counted from end of most letters not fro end of sirtut therefore you may want to do 11 mm a line.
ReplyDeleteto be more machmir you can use shiur chazon ish and-or not accept keset 2and 3 etzbaot rather do 3 and 4 etzbaot.
biggest chumra will give you 7 etzba * 2.4 cm=16/8 cm not to have above safek of where gilyon starts you do 1.8 mm a line =total megila size is 36 cm.
the klafmachers that leave less is because they go according to the shita that these shiurim are for sefer thats ama tall and as the sefer gets smaller the margins get smaller in proportion
One question, when you say the end of most letters, are you referring to the lamed at the top and chaf sofis at the bottom?
