=== Movable type: traditional relief printing for text === Traditional text printing with [[movable type]] is also a relief technique. This meant that woodcuts were much easier to use as book illustrations, as they could be printed together with the text. Intaglio illustrations, such as engravings, had to be printed separately. The first relief-printed publication in the US, the multi-page newspaper ''[[Publick Occurrences Both Forreign and Domestick]]'', was published on September 25, 1690.<ref>{{cite web|author=Breig, James|date=2014|title=Early American newspapering|website=Colonial Williamsburg|url=http://www.history.org/Foundation/journal/spring03/journalism.cfm}}</ref>
