These pieces should be useful material for calligraphy learners and they should fall into the general scope of "providing knowledge; instructional or informative". The nature is calligraphic rather than textual. Calligraphy is more common in the East Asian hieroglyphic culture due to the complexity and possible variations of hieroglyphs. Calligraphy practice is common in primary education in the area and exemplars from celebrated calligraphy masters are the basis for practice.
"Heart Sutra.png" is a form of chinese art called character assembly 集字. This has been practiced for over 1000 years. A famous example is 大唐三藏聖教序. The work is to pick characters from calligraphic exemplars of a calligrapher to form a new piece of calligraphic work. Heart sutra is a popular text for calligraphic practice. Various forms of character assembly exemplar for calligraphic practice can be bought off-the-shelf.
王羲之十七帖.pdf is a piece of calligraphic restoration work by means of vectorization using the Inkscape software. 十七帖 is a famous calligraphic exemplar collection. It has been replicated many times over the centuries by means of stone carving and stone rubbing. Most of the surviving replicas are severely damaged. The pdf is a restoration of the exemplar collection in vector graphics. There is a prologue in Chinese in the pdf that provides a brief explanation to the work. The front page is composed by character assembly (集字).
七十帖.png is one of the 29 exemplars in the 十七帖 exemplar collection. This is also a piece of calligraphic restoration work later consolidated into 王羲之十七帖.pdf.
