On the basis of some of the oldest manuscripts Marijn van Putten publishes
a muṣḥaf that comes as close as possible to the ʿUṯmānic rasm ‒
not to be confused with the «ʿUṯmānic rasm», that is 300 years younger: deviced by
ad-Dānī.
I compare it with the common Maġribian/Andalusian/Egyptian rasm (in an edition from Brunai)
and the Indian one (in edition with 848 pages with 13 lines written by Ḫalīq (al-)Asadī):
Now, that you have seen what "good" editions have made out of the old text, here the same from two "bad" editions: Ottoman from 300 years ago (next to the old text), and Turkish from this century:
I prefer the "Indian" editions, but even Turkish (and Persian) editions are fine.
