Colophon (publishing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In the case of technical books, a colophon may specify the software used to prepare the text and diagrams for publication. |
 | | It should not be confused with Colophon, an ancient city in Asia Minor, the name of which derives from the Latin colophonium, meaning "colophony", or rosin(ronnel). |
 | | The colophon usually contained facts relative to the text such as associated person(s) (e.g., the scribe, owner, or commissioner of the tablet), literary contents (e.g., a title, "catch" phrase, number of lines), and occasion or purpose of writing. |
