<span>Gutenberg was instrumental in changing the speed at which the worldcommunicated. Prior to Gutenberg adding several changes together, to wind upwith his version of the 'printing press'. There were several 'ideas' thatpreceded him. The first advance was the use of block letters in a fixed frame,Then came the idea of moving the paper into and out of the press. Finally, wasthe use of a molton metal (Lead-tin Mixture) that allowed for the Type Patternto be recycled for every letter that was needed. The copying by hand , theprevious editions of 'the book', was a laborious process that required manyhands to copy out the text onto linen 'pages', and to make sure that what waswritten ,was accurate.

This enabled more people top read the books of the Bible.</span>
