Linotype 78 hot-metal linecasting machine, made by Linotype & Machinery Ltd, Altrincham, c.1962, and used at the Alyaum newspaper in Dammam, Saudi Arabia.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: The Linotype 78 is a hot-metal linecasting machine used in printing which is manufactured and sold by the former Mergenthaler Linotype Company and related companies. It was a hot metal typesetting system that cast lines of metal type for individual uses. The machine revolutionized typesetting and with it especially newspaper publishing, making it possible for a relatively small number of operators to set type for many pages daily.
