How can I typeset a headline in an emergency?

Low-Cost Headlines

Transfer lettering is one of the easiest ways to create display type for headlines in an emergency, or when you need a limited amount of a specialty typeface. The individual letters come on a dry transfer sheet and a burnisher is used to rub them off. Most brands, including Letraset, Zipatone, and Chartpak, come in point sizes ranging from 6 to 192 and may be purchased in commercial art supply retail stores.
