Preparing for printing involves two main steps: typesetting and editing. Typesetting is the process of arranging text into a specific format, such as columns, tables, or illustrations. It also includes adjusting the font size, typeface, and other elements to create a visually appealing layout. Editing is the process of reviewing the text for accuracy and making any necessary changes. This includes checking for grammar, spelling, punctuation, and other errors. Both typesetting and editing are essential steps in preparing documents for printing.
