Photostat

  ('tə-stăt') pronunciation

A trademark used for a photographic device for making positive or negative copies of graphic matter.

('təstăt') , reproduction of any printed or simple black-and-white material, such as drawings or manuscripts, made by the Photostat, a photographic camera. While slower and more expensive than xerography, the process is still used where a high degree of resolution is desired, as in publishing.
