It was interesting. It sounds like you come from the era when "typesetting" was already making its way into the digital domain. I come from hand-setting steel type, linotype (etaoin shrdlu, which I never mastered), copper plates and picking the dots up by hand after dropping one on the floor, the IBM Selectric Composer (omigawd; ever try to fix one out of alignment?) workin on Multilith paper plates, the Varityper that always broke down, the Addressograph's attempt that also crashed and burned, and (later, just before I left the graphics design field the first time) optical typesetters that were being used by the GPO. I missed your era entirely! Coming into DTP in 1992, I found the whole thing a joy. I was *so* happy to leave behind all that other stuff!
