March 28, 2008, Newsletter Issue #209: Metal or Plastic?

Tip of the Week

Metal rulers are an absolute necessity in paste-up. They stay straight, are more accurate, and donŽt get hacked up from use with X-acto knives. In most cases, youŽll find they have standard measurements (inches) on one side and typesetting measurements (picas and points) on the other. (Plastic is acceptable for light duty measuring and drawing.)
