Visit Visit our website This 1966 Kodak Film “How Paper Gets the Word“ looks at how photographic paper is produced and what its applications are in the graphic arts. It shows the use of photographic paper in phototypesetting in a typographer’s shop, a newspaper and a book publisher. The film begins by showing the whole production and quality control process at the vast “Kodak Park” facilities in Rochester, New York. This is followed by different applications, particularly in modern typesetting and photo composing for newspapers and book publishing. The film shows this process in great detail, with a particular focus on how this works with different typesetting machines such as the Fotosetter and the American Type Founders Typesetter. 0:08 different scenes of people using paper items, 0:36 Kodak presents “How Paper Gets the Word – Photographic Paper in the Graphic Arts”, 1:02 paper pulp being mixed, 1:25 photographs being developed, 2:01 an aerial map being printed, 2:22 boxes of Kodak Photographic Papers, 3:00 operators working on “Fotosetter” machines.
