Definitions

  • This present invention refers to Column Writing, a method of text production using printing elements or any other type of installation, such as offset, projectors etc. in which the words are arranged in columns.
  • the printing technique used today illustrates the writing of the respective hand written texts, on which the words of the text are arranged in straight lines, with the following word placed on the right hand side of the previous one. Therefore the so called “rows" are formed which, provided the text is single columned, they begin from the left page offset and end up at the respective limit of the right page offset.
  • the rows extend throughout the width of the column allowing margins of equal width before the beginning and after the end of the row. Reading of these texts is carried our starting with the first word of the first row and them moving with direction from left to right. As soon as the first row is read, reading of the second row begins with exactly the same procedure etc.
  • Text produced by the above method i.e. text having words arranged one next to the other, presents the following disadvantages:
  • set of printing elements the sum of printing elements or other forms of printing elements, such as light sensitive tin plates, films etc.. by which a specific word is printed on paper or produced on any other surface.
  • This present invention consists of a specific arrangement of the above mentioned “sets of printing elements” from which a column form of text is derived, with significant advantages for the reader.
  • Figure a and b illustrate the arrangement of the various sets of printing elements by which the successive words of the text are produced using the method of Column Writing, by which the respective texts are produced as suggested by this method.
  • Fig. a' and Fig. b' illustrate the Column form of text as it is actually produced on texts by the sets of printing elements of figures a and b.
