         face, or part from which the impression is taken; c,
         the shoulder, or top of the body; d, the nick
         sometimes two or more are made, designed to assist
         the compositor in distinguishing the bottom of the face
         from t`e top; e, the groove made in the process of
         finishing, -- each type as cast having attached to the
         bottom of the body a jet, or small piece of metal
         formed by the surplus metal poured into the mold,
         which, when broken off, leaves a roughness that
         requires to be removed. the fine lines at the top and
         bottom of a letter are technically called ceriphs, and

   point system of type bodies type founding, a system
      adopted by the type founders of the united states by which
      the various sizes of type have been so modified and
      changed that each size bears an exact proportional
      relation to every other size. the system is a modification
      of a french system, and is based on the pica body. this
      pica body is divided into twelfths, which are termed
      "points," and every type body consist of a given number of
      these points. many of the type founders indicate the new
      sizes of type by the number of points, and the old names
      are gradually being done away with. by the point system
      type founders cast type of a uniform size and height,
      whereas formerly fonts of pica or other type made by
      different founders would often vary slightly so that they
      could not be used together. there are no type in actual
      use corresponding to the smaller theoretical sizes of the
      point system. in some cases, as in that of ruby, the term
      used designates a different size from that heretofore so
      called.
