Last visit in Poland I made some measurements on the super caster matrices. Here the results for 1*1 inch super caster matrices.
I had only 1 pica sized character available, all the others were Didot sized, her on the European continent, we do all with the Didot system
This can help when engraving new matrices, and also with electro copying.
The place for the type at the matrix:
