If you ever wondered exactly what Gutenberg invented, you will get a firm grounding on his adaptations and innovations in manufacturing and setting type, formulating ink, preparing paper, and creating a printing press. You’ll also discover the marvel of pantographs, devices that trace a template to cut or carve an identical copy, often much smaller. Learn about the Eighth Wonder of the World, the Linotype hot-metal typesetter! Uncover the roots of modern type and how Steve Jobs’s love of letters led to the Macintosh’s sophistication in handling fonts and printing by laser.
