| Description |
English: Drawing of a typographical drive, also called a strike. When the letter on a punch is perfect, it is driven into a piece of polished copper; the drive results. The drive in turn passes to the justifier, who makes the width and depth of the faces uniform throughout the fount. They must then be made to line exactly with each other. When these operations are completed, the drive has been transformed into the matrix. |
