- Duplicator — An old apparatus for multiplying written documents or drawings, based on transferring ink from a special matrix; (rarely) a person who multiplies texts using such a device or automated copying systems. As an adjective, it describes an archaic system or method of semi-automated graphic reproduction.
- To reproduce by autography — To reproduce a text, musical score, drawing, or map using autography, a traditional lithographic replication technique involving the transfer of writing from a specially prepared paper directly onto the printing stone. In a secondary modern sense, the term can also describe the act of signing or leaving a handwritten dedication on an object or document.
- Autotype — A photomechanical printing process used to reproduce continuous-tone images (photographs, paintings) by means of a screen (halftone screen) that breaks the image down into a dense layout of fine dots of varying sizes. The term also denotes the metallic printing plate (autotype) obtained through this method, historically used for illustration printing in books and newspapers.
- Autotypy — A photomechanical printing process used to reproduce continuous-tone images, such as photographs, by using a halftone screen that breaks tones down into microscopic dots of varying sizes. The term also denotes the metallic printing plate produced via this technique or the final printed image, representing a revolutionary stage in the history of illustrated press.
- Autotypography — An extremely rare experimental or historical printing process where the manuscript, drawing, or matrix is directly transferred or engraved onto the printing plate by the author themselves, without the assistance of a compositor or professional engraver. This bookish term individualizes early attempts at independent publishing and total control over the graphic duplication process.
