What’s It Mean? A-Z
///////////////////////////////
Line Spacing: Actual space between lines of text characters on a page. The standard computer default of "single" can be "squeezed" or "expanded" as space allows. For paid manuscript preparation, all of our prices are based on single space, though custom quotations are possible.
Line Art: Made of individual lines, no % shading or close line fill - unless special handling is required (some very detailed older woodcuts, etc.), these do not add to cost of publication.
Terms marked with an asterisk (*) are not generally used in our office.
