Henle apparently did their last plate engraving in about 2000, and were
supposedly one of the last hold-outs when most others had been using
computers for a while. So, when talking about the big respected
publishing houses: Anything from before 1985-1990 is almost sure to be
plate-engraved; anything after 2000 is almost sure to be
computer-engraved; for music from between those approximate dates, you'd
have to take a look to find out. (According to the maker of SCORE,
Schott was the first well-known publisher to use his software, 1990.)
