Featuring the cathode-ray tube Linotron 505 for high-speed film typesetting. Although this is a film machine, the input is still controlled by perforated tape.
The film features many line diagrams on how the CRT machine works and exposes the characters onto paper or film. It goes into depth about the optical grid system of characters on glass plates.
The ability to photographically create “fake” italics is possible for the first time and the facilities that create the grids are shown in detail. The film ends with an aerial view of the Mergenthaler (a division of Eltra) production plant in Long Island, New York.
Year: 1969
