The Gairdner edition of the Paston Letters was printed in six volumes. Each volume is a separate e-text; Volume VI is further divided into two e-texts, Letters and Index. Volume I, the General Introduction, will be released after all other volumes, matching the original publication order.

In this Index segment of the Paston Letters, unambiguous errors in punctuation and typography have been silently corrected or regularized. Other errors are marked with mouse-hover popups, and are listed again at the end of their entry. The word “invisible” means that there is an appropriately sized blank space, but the letter or punctuation mark itself is missing.

In the General Index, many cross-references (“See” or “See also”) are misspelled. Where the difference is significant enough to make it hard to find the name, the corrected form is shown immediately after the original entry.
