Description

The invention relates to a method of arranging letters one below the other in rows photo-optical setting of characters such as letters 50 are. According to the number of columns within or the like, on photosensitive material in which this matrix, d. H. the number of identical letters different characters of a desired line within a row can be created depending on the sequence of exposures one after the other manually in the beam path processing system at the same time or one after the other a multitude of ones Continuous light source are brought to here in number different and locked out in the desired manner Position by opening a suitable 55 chosen letter from a wide variety of hori locks projected onto the photosensitive material in procontal rows on a common line to be, being next to the actual. ren. The selection of individual letters at the desired setting process the characters and the automatic digits within a line will work via binary of lines at any point in the light emitting means, namely four shutter plates Sensitive material according to relative movement between 60 possible that compared to the matrix of characters and examine Character carrier and photo layer carrier are possible to move one another.
