TRANSPOSITION OF PAGES.

Each person in the companionship must lay down his pages properly on the

stone for imposition. The compositor whose turn it is to impose looks

them over to see if they are rightly placed. Should they, after this

examination, lie improperly, and be thus imposed, it will be his business

to transpose them; but, should the folios be wrong, and the mistake

arise from this cause, it must be rectified by the person to whom the

matter belongs. Pages without folios or head-lines, laid down wrongly for

imposition, must be rectified by the person who has been slovenly enough

to adopt this plan.
