tipo de imprenta

(n.) = book face, printing type, type

Ex. Fraktur, cut with a contrived formality that belied its cursive origins, became the most successful of all the gothic types, surviving as a book face in Germany until the mid twentieth century.

Ex. Printing types were cast in an alloy of lead, antimony, and tin called type-metal.

Ex. Plaster was mixed with water and poured over the type, and allowed to set; when it had hardened it was lifted off the page (the oil preventing it from sticking to the type), and baked hard in an oven.
