Etymology

The term 'typeset' originates from the traditional craft of typesetting which dates back to the invention of movable type in the 15th century by Johannes Gutenberg. The word itself is a combination of 'type', referring to the individual letters and characters used in printing, and 'set', which describes the action of arranging these types into a specific format. Over the years, typesetting evolved with advancements in technology, moving from manual processes using metal type to digital typesetting methods. This transformation has made typesetting more efficient and accessible, changing the landscape of printing and publishing forever. Today, typesetting is an essential skill for graphic designers, publishers, and anyone involved in producing written content for a variety of media.
