LETTERPRESS!!!

Yeyy finally got to do letterpress!!!Always wanted to know how this process worked and now I had the chance.
To create the above type I chose to use 18pt Clarendon Bold and 23pt leading.
Things to remember:

• make sure all the notches on each letter are facing upwards so that the type reads correctly when printed.
• use middles for the spaces between words.
• use thins for the spacing between punctuation.
• quads are used as padding to fill the gaps.
• also when creating the said type start from left to right making sure that the type is arranged backwards so that it will be printed correctly.

I will definitely try to use this process again at some point?!?!?
