Well I doubt those works are copyrighted. So I’d just find the text remove any special formatting or characters and look for a printing service.

If I could look at the text I'd do that; that was what I was expecting to find, after all. But these are like 12th century manuscripts that you can't even view without special access to places like the Vatican and things of that nature because they are extremely delicate. If a PDF or digital copy exists of things like that, I haven't been able to find any.

Maybe worth it if you're a scholar but... I'm just a curious guy lol

If you run for Pope I’d vote for you under the condition that you make all the historical documents digitally available for anyone to view freely.

I'm a Discordian Pope. Maybe I can help you out

And, you'd be wrong. Works don't lose their copyright just because they go out of print and are hard to find. Thanks to Disney, copyright survived for the length of the authors life plus 90 years.

I think the documents he is referring to existed long before the United States was even a country. I think he is talking about stuff that was literally written like 800 years ago.
