Composing room management; a survey of present conditions and a discussion in detail of possible improvements (1918)
Kimball, Dorr · Berkeley, Cal. · leaf 102
This is the rough preliminary which the lay-out man makes for his own guidance indetermining the size of cuts, drawings and type. It is made only for this purpose anddoes not go out of his hands. Paper ruled in pica squares is convenient to work on. Or … The drawing for the illustration is carefully marked with a red outline showing the edgeof the finished block. All dimensions are given in even picas for the cut as reduced, andagree with the outlined dimensions on the rough lay-out. This prevents waste in justification.
