Where did the earliest form of print technology devolop ? Where the early books printed? |
| Answer» \tThe earliest kind of printing technology developed in China, Japan and Korea. This was a system of hand printing.\tFrom AD 594 onwards, books in China were printed by rubbing paper against the inked surface of woodblocks. As both sides of the thin, porous sheet could not be printed, the traditional Chinese accordion book was folded and stitched at the side.\tThe imperial state in China was, for a very long time, the major producer of printed material. China possessed a huge bureaucratic system which recruited its personnel through civil services examination. | |
