Sub-Topic 1: MEANING OF KEYBOARDING; TYPES OF PAPER SIZES; USES OF EACH TYPE
Keyboarding is the process of using a machine like typewriter or computer to process data into a mail able form for future reference.
TYPES OF PAPER SIZES
In an office you will come across seven (7) different sizes of papers and they are referred to as A-series. These include A1, A2, A3, A 4, A5, A6 and A7. The most common of these paper sizes are A4, A5 and A6 papers, others include memo, quarto , octavo and foolscap. The paper sizes are stated below as follows
Paper Correct size
A6 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 105 × 148 mm
A5 ------------------------------landscape------------------------------- 210 × 140 mm
A5 ------------------------------portrait------------------------148 × 210 mm
A4 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 210 × 297 mm
Octavo (8vo) ---------------------------------------127 × 205 mm
Memo ----------------------------------------------- 205 × 127 mm
Quarto (4to) ----------------------------------------- 205 × 254 mm
Foolscap (fep) ----------------------------------------205 × 330 mm
Good quality typing sheets are very necessary for good type writing jobs. More of those papers will be treated as we go further in the type writing studies.
USES OF THE TYPES OF PAPER SIZES
The A-series paper sizes are used for different purposes as stated below.
A1 – Its sizes is 420mm x 594mm and it is used for structural drawings, estate and building sketching.
A2 – All paper sizes can be obtained from A1 and when it is folded we will get two A2 papers. Its measures is 841mm x 514mm and it is used for newspaper production e.g. Guardian, Sunday times, Daily times newspapers etc.
A3 – Its size is 420mm x 297mm and when folded once it becomes an A4 paper. It is used for photocopying large documents and secondary school simple building drawings.
A4 – This is used for lengthy memoranda letters, reports and literacy works and photocopying smaller documents and its size is 210mm x 297mm. When A4 is folded twice each half becomes an A5 paper
A5 – Its size is determined by whichever side is used. It is used for short memo card, short letters, personal correspondence, short business letters and advertisement, when it is used sideways it becomes A5 landscape but when used with shorter side up it becomes A5¬ portrait. It sizes are 210mm x 148mm and two A6¬ paper can be gotten from it.
A6 – This paper is used for post cards, index cards, invitation cards and when folded once, one half forms A7 and its size is 105mm x 148mm.
A7 - This paper type is used for business cards, complementary cards.

Apart from the paper sizes discussed above we have traditional papers like foolscap, quarto, sixmo, memo, octavo, brief and draft.
Foolscap (fep) is used for long document and legal work.
Quarto(4to) is used for medium letters.
Sixmo(6mo) is use for correspondence.
Octovo(8vo) is use for short messages
You have learnt that there are ten characters on a pica faced typewrite while on an elite faced typewriter there are twelve characters to an inch(25mm). There are six single line spaces to every 25mm typed vertically down a page of paper whether the type is in pica or elite.

DISPLAY
Display is the centralization of matters like notice, menus, itineraries programmes and a host of others on A4 or A5 papers in a beautiful and acceptable way. This can be done horizontally or vertically on typing papers. Display is also the orderly, eye catching arrangement of materials on a paper with emphasis on the important parts of the material so that the message is immediately conveyed to the reader.
METHODS OF DISPLAY
Horizontal Display
Horizontal display is to Centre a word or words in the middle of a page so that there is equal space on the left and right sides of the page. The backspacing method is used for horizontal display and the following procedures are to be done,
 Move the margin stops to the extreme left and right and clear all tabular stops.
 Insert the paper with the left edge at 0 on the paper scale.
 Check the number of horizontal typing spaces at the right end with the aid of the paper scale, this will give you the total spaces available from left to right of the typing paper(use the typing line spaces across the page.
 Divide the total spaces by two to find the Centre of the paper.
 Move the carriage to the Centre point.
 Set a tabular stop on that Centre point.
 Back space once for every two letters or spaces in the typing line.
 Ignore any odd number.
 Begin typing line at the point reached through backspacing.
The number of horizontal spaces in the full width and Centre points of A4 and A5 papers are as follows. It should be noted that the number of spaces to an inch in elite is 12, pica 10 ( 25mm) ,in order to centralize a sentence like Adeori company limited horizontally on A4 paper, the following steps should be taken:
 The sentence including the spaces in between should be counted.
 The counted number should be deducted from the total number of spaces on the A4 paper; 100 for elite and 82 for pica.
 Divide the remaining number into two
 Set the left edge of the paper at ‘0’, move margin stops to extreme left and right on the carriage scale.
 Count the divided numbers from scale ‘0’ which you had already set at the left edge of the paper
 Type the sentence,.

Vertical Display
This is the arrangement of materials on the page so that there are the same number of blank lines at the top and bottom. There are two methods of displaying information vertically and these are-
Mathematical method and backspacing methods.
Mathematical method includes the following steps.
 Find the number of typing lines from the top to bottom of the page
 Count the number of lines and blank lines the display will occur(that is lines of type and lines of spaces between them)
 Subtract this total from the number of lines down the page.
 Divide the answer by two to give equal line spaces above and below the typing, ignore any fraction.
 Insert paper and make sure the left edge is at 0 on the paper scale and that the top edge is level with the alignment scales.
 Turn up the number of spaces calculated for the top margin plus one space.
 Type the display, centre each line horizontally. Turn up twice when it is necessary to leave one line space.
This display gives a number of single lines spaces to a page on A4 and A5 papers as follows:

A4 (210 x 297 mm) - 70 single line spaces
A5 landscape paper (210 x 148 mm) – 35 single line spaces
A5 portrait paper (148 x 210 mm) – 50 single line spaces
There are 6 (six) single line spaces to 1 inch which is 25mm. To centralize matter vertically on the sheet of paper, the following steps should be taken.
 Count the number of lines including blank lines that matter will occupy.
 Subtract the above figure from the number of lines spaces on your paper.
 After subtracting the figure, divide the remaining figure by 2, ignore any fraction in order to determine on what line to begin the typing.
 Finally start typing.
1) Number of lines on paper 210 x 148 mm = 35
2) Number of line and spaces on copy = 12
3) Deduct number 2 from number 1 = 35 – 12 = 23
4) Divide the answer in number 3 by 2 = 23/2 = 11 and avoid fraction for top and bottom margining.
5) Turn up 12 single line space and type first line of notice.

The backspacing method
These steps are used in this method
Find the number of vertical lines on the paper
Count the number of lines and blank spaces to be used in typing the problem
Move the paper to the vertical centre by spacing down from the top edge of the paper, setting lever on single space, as we see in A4 paper where we need to go down 35 single-line spaces.
Roll the platen (cylinder) back once for each two lines or blank line space, ignore any fraction that is left.

This is an alternative to the centre display, here the left margin is used as a common starting point.
 Blocked style vertical display is arranged in the usual way with equal top and bottom margins.
 It has the longest line centred across the page.
 It has theleft margin set at the beginning of the line.
 All lines are beginning at that point.

Sub-Topic 3:Types of Display Headings
There are five(5) kinds of headings which includes main heading, sub-heading, paragraph heading, shoulder heading, and side heading but the most commonly used are main, paragraph and shoulder.
Main Headings
This is the tittle of the document that is being typed. It is sometimes typed in closed capital letters or in space capitals ie by giving one space for each letter and three spaces between each word.
These are usually centered on the typing line and are typed in full capitals, followed immediately by two blank lines. Any heading typed in lower case with initial MUST be underscored. Full stop must not be used at the end of the heading, unless the last word is abbreviated. If there is a full stop you must not underscore it. Only a single underscore may be used in main headings. Examples
 IMPORTATION OF GOODS
 MESSERS R. NDACHABA & CO. LTD
Paragraph Headings
They are typed with initial capitals and lower case letters. They must be underscored. Paragraph headings may stand separately or run into the paragraph it can be with or without punctuation marks. Example.
STEEL INDUSTRY
Nigeria established iron and steel industries to assist in industrialization. There are two major steel complexes in the country.
Ajaokuta steel complex -This is the biggest of the steel complexes, part of it was commissioned in 1983
Delta steel complex— This is the second steel complex, it produces about 210,000 tons of steel bars and rods annually.
Shoulder Headings
These are always typed in full capital letters at the left hand margin, preceded and followed by one blank line. Full stop must never be put after the shoulder heading unless the last word is abbreviated. If there is a full stop, do not underscore it, only single underscore may be used in shoulder headings. The heading is separated from the material by a clear one line space and the headings starts on the same line as the text while the shoulder heading starts on a separate line. Example. NOVELTY MATCH.


PARTS OF A TYPEWRITER
(three single line spacing)
BELL
(2 line spacing)
CYLINDER
(2 line spacing.
SUB- HEADING – This heading appears under a main heading, it is usually typed in initials with lower case letters and is underscored. Main or sub-heading may be typed in either blocked form or centered over the writing line .EXAMPLE
SOFT DRINK FACTORY
Locating a factory.
SIDE HEADING –This is also called marginal heading, this type of heading is typed inside the left hand side margin in closed capitals. The underscore may not be used.
EXAMPLE
CURRENT ACCOUNT
An account operated by business men in commercial banks to enable them obtain loans to increase their capital base.
COMMERCIAL BANKS
These are banks that render financial services to customers in order to maximize profit.

Evaluation:
1. How many types of display headings do we have?
2. Write brief notes on each of the following display headings:
(a) Main heading
(b) Shoulder heading
(c) Paragraph heading.

SUB-TOPIC: PRINTER’S CORRECTION SIGNS
Corrections on manuscripts going to a printer for typesetting may either be (a) a briefly worded instruction or (b) through the use of correction signs. All corrections must be made when the passage
is typed, below are some correction signs.
Exercise: exercise 3 and 3a (page 44 and 45) in the spectrum business studies 3 for junior secondary school project book.


Proof Reading : This is a process whereby a good typist checks and carefully read the document typed to ensure its error free.
Proof reading stand for:
p- practice your proof reading skills
r- re-read if necessary
o- only be satisfied with perfection
0- One error not corrected is too many
f- find and correct all errors
r- refer to the dictionary often
e- erase neatly and completely
a- Always proof read
d- divide words properly.

ERASING TECHNIQUES
These are means of cleaning or correcting mistakes made in the processing data. There are four (4) erasing techniques and these includes
 Rubber eraser
 Mechanical eraser
 Double typing
 Half space correcting.
EXPLANATIONS
1. Rubber eraser: - this is a means of erasing an error while typing by moving the carriage to the left or right to prevent the eraser dust from falling into the type writer. Erase the error carefully so as not to tear the paper and blow the dust away from the machine before typing the correct stroke or word.
2. Mechanical erasers: - these consist of chemically treated strips of paper / correction paper, fluid and powder.
a. To use the paper strip to correct your error(s) you only backspace the stroke or word to be erased. Place the strip over the error with the imprinted side towards you, retype the same error through the strip and then remove the strip from the machine. You should then back space and type the correct stroke or words. E strip can be used as many times as possible.
b. Liquid paint can also be used by turning up at least three lines, paint over the error let it dry and then you retype the stroke or word correctly. This is also referred to as correcting fluid
c. For some typewriters like IBM electric, there are special erasing ribbons fixed to them which can be changed as quickly as possible when they are finished. It is easy to correct errors with ribbons by backspacing, retyping the errors made, backspacing again and type the correct stroke or word.
3. DOUBLE TYPING: - This is the process of typing the correct stroke or word on the error made without erasing it. This is called over typing or double typing. This process is heavily penalized in typewriting examinations.
4. HALF SPACING CORRECTING: - This process is used in correcting a three character word or four character word by using a back spacer, press down the key firmly the carriage moves one spacing from the right to the left but when you depress the key half way, the carriage will give a half space which is what is required to insert the fourth character. E.g. words like any to many.
5. Correction paper- These are papers use for correction and it involve the following:
- Back space to the error
- Place the correcting paper over the error with the coated side towards the paper
- Type the error made in order to (coat) the error from the word
- Remove the correcting paper
- Type the correct letter or word.
MEMORANDUM: - These are medium of sending messages within an establishment, firms usually have their memo random printed in forms they desire. The layout of the headings varies from one organization to another. Example is stated below:
A layout of a memorandum
Pele-Wura & company limited
From To

TYPES OF PERSONAL LETTERS
There are three (3) kinds of personal letters and this includes personal business letter, formal personal letter and personal letter.
 Personal Business Letter
This kind of letter is written to an unknown person or firm about a personal business matter. The pattern is the same with a business letter, i.e. contains home address, date, name and address of the addressee can be typed in the usual place as is being done in business letters.
 Formal Personal Letter
This is used when writing to an older person. It is the same layout as in personal business letters. The salutation is formal e.g. Dear Mr. Bello, Dear Eng. Joseph or Dear Miss Patrene
 Personal Letters
This is writing a letter to a personal friend. Name and address should be as in a personal business letter. Name and address of the addressee is not necessary. The salutation in this regard is informal e.g. Dear John, Dear Amos, and Dear Tunde.
