Description:Type specimen book for AR Typographers Inc. "This is Volume 2 of a 3-volume series of type specimen books covering all phases of modern typographic composition: Volume 1: Optionally Set Display Faces (Typositor), Volume 2: Text Faces / Linotype, Volume 3: Photo Composition / Alphatype (in preparation). The pages contained in this volume show sample settings of the text faces, sizes and character counts of our linotype library. Solid, one and two point leaded settings are shown for most type families. The index lists the sizes and faces available in linotype composition. An index of Alphatype faces has been included to show our complete library of text faces, because many faces are made for photo composition only. The front matter of this book offers guidance in copy preparation, copy fitting and proof reading marks. Text faces in which foreign language composition is available are listed. Borders, ornaments and miscellaneous characters are shown at the back of the book." - front matter
