Taken from the book “Operation and Mechanism of the Linotype and Intertype” by J Ashworth, first published in 1955.
Used with Linotypes and Intertypes, these saws extend the scope of work from the keyboard to cover line measures from one em to lines of any length. Very narrow measures can be set as normal-measure work at the keyboard, and the slugs cut on the saw to the measures required.
