The first printers in Europe modeled their books very closely on handwritten manuscripts, leading to an easy acceptance of print among readers but to significant missteps in trying to apply technology.
The attempt to replicate manuscripts’ appearance encouraged experiments in two- or three-color printing.
This was intricate and expensive work, and many printers found it preferable to pay expert calligraphers to manually adorn unbound sheets with additional colors. Illuminated headings and decoration familiar from the manuscript age had helped lead readers through the text. To achieve similar effects, printers began to experiment with new arrangements of type, using large fonts for headings and substituting decorative woodcuts for hand-executed initial letters. Ultimately, readers came to accept books printed in just one color.

选项
A、could not afford books printed in multiple colors
B、considered the books inferior to handwritten manuscripts
C、suggested certain improvements to printers

E、found the books’ appearance to be reassuringly familiar
答案
E
解析
