Manuscript

A manuscript is any document that is written by hand, not printed or made in some other way. The early history of writing is intimately connected with the history of writing materials, of which the manuscript is one.^[1] Early printing made use of many ideas which developed in the era of manuscripts.^[2]^[3]b
