Review
A masterpiece of concision... [Printing digital type on the hand-operated flatbed cylinder press] is well worth reading, not just for what it is, a technical guide to the process, but also as a masterpiece of the equally diYcult art of describing a technical process in a few clear works. At $20, a bargain. -- Nicolas Barker, The Book Collector, 1999
Printing digital type on the hand-operated flatbed cylinder press could not come out at a more appropriate time... With his years of experience in type, printing and fine press publishing, Mr Lange brings both respect and credibility to the subject of digital type and fine press printing. -- Wilber H. Schilling, Parenthesis, 1998
