About This Book
A practical manual for teaching printing and bookbinding in schools that combines pedagogical rationale with step-by-step shop procedures. It introduces printing as a constructive manual art, then describes tools and composition methods, type setting, rules of composition, proof marks, imposition and layout strategies (including work-and-turn and folio/quarto handling), presswork, cleaning and distribution, plate and woodcut use, and finishing and trimming considerations. Guidance on selecting, arranging, and costing equipment is included, alongside suggestions for project selection and classroom organization to permit safe, real-world production by students.
