    Print Fest 2010
    You are invited to visit the National Print Museum to witness a traditional that has virtually disappeared. Printers from around the country will demonstration different aspects of the hot metal era. Type will be set by hand alongside practical demonstrations of the Linotype and Monotype and many other machines in the collection.

    This is a unique occasion to see how newspapers, books and all kinds of literature were designed and printed before the computer revolution. Expert advice will be on hand to answer any questions and people will be able to do some printing for themselves. The Museum will be brought to life on this unique afternoon and visitors will get a rare glimpse of what a printing house was like 100 years ago. It will be a very enjoyable day for anyone interested in printing, bookbinding, design, newspapers, books etc. It will also be a chance for printers who now work with computers to relive their old printing days.
    2pm - 6pm, Saturday 11th September 2010

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
