Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the mystery of the computer world unfolds with each revelation of its technology, computer users today look forward to a powerful tool to produce a variety of reports and manuscripts. The Unix system provides a variety of powerful text formatters, and one such typesetting tool is called nroff/troff which can help users unlock the resources and the power of a computer system in the preparation of written documents. nroff is a text formatter for daisy-wheel printers and similar devices while troff is a device-independent text formatter for producing typeset output. These two together provide the facilities of a word processor together with formatting features and enable users to produce output that can be printed onto a variety of devices from line printers to typesetters.This book provides a complete description with regard to the capabilities of Unix document processing and typesetting to a variety of users. It also describes in detail the AT&T supported memorandum macros (mm) package which provides a user friendly interface to nroff/troff. The concept and techniques of typesetting are fully illustrated with examples to unveil the power of Unix's document processing capability.

Download or read book Coach House at Fifty written by Dennis Reid and published by The Porcupine's Quill. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coach House at Fifty looks back at an underreported slice of the complex history of one of Canada’s most celebrated small, literary publishers, and particularly the impact of changing technologies on book design and production at the shop on bpNichol Lane in the shadow of Rochdale College in Toronto. Curator Dennis Reid reminisces about ‘The Old Coach House Days’ (1964–66) when the press released early poetry books by Wayne Clifford and Joe Rosenblatt. Michael Ondaatje was an unknown, and the production technology was primarily 19th-century letterpress augmented with silkscreen. Simon Fraser professor John Maxwell picks up the narrative in ‘The Early Digital Period’, starting in 1974 when publisher Stan Bevington bought a Datapoint 2200 and a Mergenthaler V-I-P phototypesetter. Maxwell’s research and teaching focus on the impact of digital technologies on the cultural sector (and particularly books and magazines), the history of digital media and the emergence of digital genres and mythologies. ‘Twin Heidelbergs’ looks at the genesis of Coach House as a silkscreen shop and follows the effect of key purchases of capital equipment as Stan Bevington moved his company from silkscreen to letterpress to offset and thence to digital in the first twenty years. And then lost the publishing arm of the company to managers who thought they knew better, but didn’t. And then fought to get it back. ‘A Short Walk Around the Perimeter of a Heidelberg KORD’ is a photo essay by Sandra Traversy. ‘The Beginning of My Career’ is a frivolity documenting publisher Tim Inkster’s several (unsuccessful) attempts to gain employment at Coach House. The first attempt was declined on the grounds that Inkster was (arguably) too young. The second, a scant four years later, was declined on the grounds that Inkster was too old, knew too much and would cause trouble. David Slocombe contributes ‘The Origins of SoftQuad’, a look at the spin-off company founded to improve automated typesetting at Coach House, but which spun rather too far off its axis after the early death of its president, Yuri Rubinski.
