Linotype \Lin"o*type\, n. [See {Line}; {Type}.] (Print.)
      (a) A kind of typesetting machine which produces castings,
          each of which corresponds to a line of separate types.
          By pressing the keys of a keyboard like one on a
          typewriter, the matrices for one line are properly
          arranged; the entire line, or stereotype, or slug, is
          then cast and planed, and the matrices are returned to
          their proper places, the whole process being
          automatic.
      (b) The slug produced by the machine, or matter composed
          in such lines. -- {Lin"o*typ`ist}, n.
