The activities and handwriting of these goldsmiths, founders, artisans working for the Arsenal and the Mint of Toulouse, and other guild artisans were examined, as these could have been professionals who worked alongside the author-practitioner or even the author-practitioner himself. A list of artisans classified by profession, along with information on their documented dates, location in the city (when known), proximity to notaries, and handwriting is provided, which demonstrates that in handwriting, at least, the author-practitioner was not represented among them. %G English %L hal-02735541 %U https://univ-rennes2.hal.science/hal-02735541 %~ SHS %~ UR2-HB %~ UNIV-RENNES2 %~ HCA %~ UNIV-RENNES
