ABSTRACT:
Style changes, size changes and character spacing all are accomplished by the use of a single drive motor. This is done by providing style-changing and size-changing means which are operable by relative movement in the same direction as the character spacing mechanism, and selectively coupling and uncoupling the style-changing or size-changing means to the character spacing mechanism. To this end, a preferably linear array of small, short focal-length projection lenses is provided, so that linear movement of the array relative to the spacing mechanism will produce style and/or size changes, whereas movement relative to the photographic film will produce character spacing.
