| Type sizes range from 6 to 84 point covers practically every composing type face requirement. Below each type face showing are the available sizes for that particular type face. Alphabets are available up to 144 point for special casting. Type Faces available include all the popular standard faces, with and increasing number of modern designs and feature faces. Superior type designing had gone into the making of the Ludlow typefaces, constantly keeping pace with new developments in the field. The sloping matrices make possible spirited italic and cursive typefaces on slugs which print under practical conditions with out the handicap of broken letters-so commonly associated with the very thought of such typefaces. For fine composition, all the niceties of special hand spacing are wholly practical with the Ludlow. Bad letter combinations may be eliminated more easily than by any other method of hand setting. Composition: The slugs can come set flush left, flush right or centered. Purchasing slugs that are centered saves you composition time in not having to self quad the line in your hand set type arrangement. Errors in type setting are reduced to a minimum because the proof of the slugs can be red and corrected prior to sending out to your shop or studio. Typefaces of different sizes or type may be combined on the same slug. Capitals of two different sizes can be combined in common alignment by means of the offset alignment sick without complicated fussing with spaces and subsequent trouble in lock-up in the typeholder or press. Long lines up to 90 pica or about 14 inches long can be set and connected together so that the spacing is uniform throughout the entire line. The system offers economies in producing quality jobs at lest cost for your shop. |
