There are six instances where we have translated "graver" as "to etch": 5r, 6v, 80v, 104r, 140r-v
Please change all of these to "engrave." Add an editorial note ON ALL EXCEPT 80V (which we discussed) AND 140V (where it is a corr/del - you only need the note on the first instance on 140r)
The note (please revise if necessary): Engraving here involves a process now known in English as "etching."
@ps2270 What about:
My instinct is that these should also get changed to "engrave" and get an editorial comment. Please confirm.
weird - I didn't return those in the search - so yes, please change all instances of etch to engrave and add ed note. Thank you.

@ps2270 https://github.com/ps2270 What about:
- 4r: the heading Vernis des graveurs sur le fer (Varnish of iron etchers)
- 151v: sert de vernis sur le fer pour aprés y graver (serves as a varnish on iron for etching on it afterward)
- 169r: Graver d’eau fort sur l’argent et cuivre (Etching with aquafortis on silver and copper)
My instinct is that these should also get changed to "engrave" and get an editorial comment. Please confirm.
