Even Working

	Even Working Even working is a term used in book publishing that means the number of pages in a book is divisible by the number 16 or 32.R. M. Ritter, ''The Oxford Guide to Style'', OUP, 2002, p. 1. A book with 256, 272 or 288 pages, for instance, is an "even working", whilst a book with 254 or 286 pages is not. The significance of 16 or 32, which form the individual "signatures" of which a book is composed, is that they make the most efficient use of the paper used in the printing of a book. If the number of printed pages in a book is, for example, 258, then the editor will attempt to move material from the two extra pages so that there will not be 14 Intentionally blank page, blank pages at the end of the book (the next even working after 256 being 272 pages).

picture info	Printing Printing is a process for mass reproducing text and images using a master form or template. The earliest non-paper products involving printing include cylinder seals and objects such as the Cyrus Cylinder and the Cylinders of Nabonidus. The earliest known form of printing as applied to paper was woodblock printing, which appeared in China before 220 AD for cloth printing. However, it would not be applied to paper until the seventh century.Shelagh Vainker in Anne Farrer (ed), "Caves of the Thousand Buddhas", 1990, British Museum publications, Later developments in printing technology include the movable type invented by Bi Sheng around 1040 AD and the printing press invented by Johannes Gutenberg in the 15th century.

picture info	Intentionally Blank Page An intentionally blank page or vacat page (from Latin: ''vacare'' for "being empty") is a page that has no content and may be unexpected. Such pages may serve purposes ranging from place-holding to space-filling and content separation. Sometimes, these pages carry a notice such as "This page intentionally left blank." Such notices typically appear in printed works, such as legal documents, manuals, and exam papers, in which the reader might otherwise suspect that the blank pages are due to a printing error and where missing pages might have serious consequences. Uses for intentionally blank pages Intentionally blank pages are usually the result of printing conventions and techniques. Chapters conventionally start on an odd-numbered page ( recto page); therefore, if the preceding chapter happens to have an odd number of pages, a blank page is inserted at the end. Book pages are often printed on large sheets because of technical and financial considerations. Thus, a group of 8 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
