"In this new edition we have tried, as before, to bear in mind two classes of user: the newcomer to the trade who needs help with traditional terms and the experienced printer or publisher who must attempt to keep up with new technical terminology, often originating in the computer industry. Hence we have included words ranging from archaic mediaevalisms to technocratic jargon although, in an attempt to contain the book to a manageable size, we have in this edition deleted some of the more obscure and obsolete language."
