Synopsis

Excerpt from How to Figure Type Composition by Known Factors: A New, Easy, and Labor-Saving Method of Finding the Number of Ems in Any Form of Type Matter; Also Reference Tables, Weight of Linotype Composition, and Other Information of Value to Printers, Publishers, and Printing Buyers

Besides, and to give the printer and printing buyer still less reason to waste energy on calculations, a series of reference tables have been appended showing the number of ems in nearly every type page imaginable in all type bodies in common use. These tables have been arranged in such a manner that no matter how many type bodies a page or galley contains, the actual number Of ems in such page or galley can be determined with as much ease and as quickly as if the page or galley had contained a single type body.
