The delay occasioned by the need for drying the wet flong is such a serious matter particularly to evening newspapers requiring many editions during the afternoon that several dry methods have been tried with greater or less success. But there is really no need for more than one casting process.
First, there is the stereotyping or casting of the line in its position in the type-setting machine after the matrices have been ranged in position by the application of the fingers to the various keys; and, secondly, when all the lines have been placed together to make a page, it is necessary to take an impression of them upon papier mâché, or what is technically called "flong," and then to dry it and make the full cast from it curved and ready for placing on the cylinder of the printing machine.
