	The Linotype
		As the name implies, the Linotype is a machine that produces a solid "line of type." Introduced about 1886, it was used for generations by newspapers and general printers.
		The Linotype slug is not cast exactly to point dimensions as regards body size.
		The distribution of the matrices to their correct channels in the magazine is one of the most interesting functions of the Linotype.

		Linotype salesmen get around it by stating that every office had at least one face which must always be kept on the machine, and that this face could be run in the third magazine.
		Linotype Models K and 10 have the same range of faces as the old Model 1, namely, 5 to 11 point, inclusive.

	Linotype machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The complexity of a Linotype machine was necessary not just so that it would place letter molds in the proper place as the operator typed on the keyboard, but so it could return the molds to the proper place in preparation for their next usage.
		In addition, a Linotype machine could produce "justified" type (where the spaces on the lines are expanded so that the text fills the line to the right-hand margin).
		The first two vertical rows were usually ETAOIN SHRDLU, a phrase that occasionally appeared in print because Linotype operators who made mistakes would run their fingers down the keyboard to fill out the line with nonsense, and sometimes the slug of type would accidentally get used.

		Then, the machine poured molten lead into the matrices and the result was a complete line of newspaper type, but in reverse, so that it would read properly when it transferred ink to the page.
