When people used typewriters they had to plan what they were going to type ahead of time. Usually they would produce a handwritten version that would be transcribed into a typewritten version. You had to type very carefully because if you made a mistake, it was a real pain to fix. You'd have to cover up the mistake with something called "white out" (a substance like paste). After the "white out" dried, you'd then type over your mistake. A typewritten paper with a lot of "white out" on it did not look pretty.
