Those were the days
The days of solid racks and cases of type [an upper case and a lower case] compositing sticks, brass leading, furniture and those little bits of string you tied the type together with when you lifted it from the slab onto the bed of the press before locking it into the chase with quoins. Remember? – bet you do.
These [previous posts] were done with Adobe InDesign, not the same thing at all, but with a bit of perseverance similar results can be achieved. But woe-be-tide anyone who hasn’t set cold type in a stick.
