Frank Kerns Over a New Leaf
Frank talks about kerning and how it evolved as we moved from wood type up through phototypesetting. A piece of rectangular wood type would be cut to allow tighter spacing with its adjacent character. Fast forward to the 1960s and the advent of the Visual Graphics Corp. PhotoTypositor which introduced the concept of tight spacing to typography.

When I was an RIT student after running a Linotype machine for the school newspaper (yes we produced a newspaper back then) and the school magazine I thought I went to heaven when the Linofilm came out and RIT got one. To me that was a the start of the constant changes. Thank you Apple for the Mac!!!
