Hi all,
 
Looks like a strange puzzle, however the methodology
proves to be correct – way back in the 1890's.
 
I have searched for many years trying to find out the methodology used by Mergenthaler Linotype over 100 years ago, but so far have not come up with any answers.
 
Adjusted forward thrust on a 100+ year old high base Model 5 Linotype in October 2006 at the Linotype University, Denmark, Ia. and it used the same mats as 50 year old machines used in the training environment at the school – so the algorithm has been in use a long time.

Anyone have more info let me know.
