Excerpt from Hints on Imposition: An Illustrated Guide for Printer and Pressmen in the Construction of Book Forms; Also Other Matters Pertaining to Letter-Press Printing

It is not the desire' merely to present a method for the making up and imposition of book forms, but to render this work more easy all the way through. Hence, not only is the manner of laying out the pages dealt with, but also that of folding the sheet; the reason for so folding the relation of the sheet to the type form. And of the latter to the pressman and binder.
