| 520 | _a"Type: A Primer of Information About the Mechanical Features of Printing Types" by A. A. Stewart is an educational publication focused on the technical aspects of printing types, published in the early 20th century. This primer serves as a foundational text for apprentices and students involved in the craft of typography, detailing various mechanical features like type sizes, font schemes, and the manufacturing process of printing types. The book begins by explaining the importance of understanding the physical components of printing types for printers, emphasizing their role in effective typesetting. Each chapter addresses different topics from the characteristics of various types and how they are classified to the specific processes involved in their manufacturing. The text also provides insights into the practical aspects of composing with types, including the standardization brought by the point system, and discusses the functionality of tools such as the Linotype and Monotype machines. Overall, the work is designed to equip newcomers to the printing trade with essential knowledge about the tools and techniques that underpin typography.
