explanation of movable type

[type]

A rectangular block usually made of metal, wood or plastic with raised letters on it, and printed with ink to explain it in detail (1). A square column-shaped object with a single inverted character or symbol cast or engraved at one end when printing books, which can be freely combined when typesetting. Invented by Bi Sheng in Song Dynasty. Before the Qing dynasty, it was made of cement, wood, tin, copper, lead and other materials, but now it is made of lead, antimony and tin alloy. Ming Lu Shen's "The Story of Jintai": "Recently, Baling people use copper and lead as movable type, and it is especially convenient to print on the board." Cao Hongkui's "Typesetting Technology of Movable Type", Chapter 1, Section 2: "So some people create single characters to arrange the printing plate. If there are typos, missing sentences and multiple words, it will be convenient to change them. This single character is called movable type. " (2). Refers to the flexible use of words. Ming Hu Yinglin's "Four Biluo": "Biluo notes the clouds to repair food as a movable type." According to the legend, "Biluo" is a kind of stuffed flour food that is loved by ethnic minorities Bi Shi and Roche (actually it is not), so "Biluo" is used to represent this kind of flour, so it is a flexible use of words. (3). Refers to the words still in use. Lu Xun's Collection of Letters to Yao Ke: "In fact, it is a lie to look for movable type in ancient books. For example, if we open the Selected Works, how can we decide whether its words live or die? The so-called' living' person is nothing more than a word that you can understand at a glance. "
