   Abstract: Whilst computer (assisted) typesetting has completely replaced
   more traditional technologies such as hot lead during the last fifteen years,
   it too is now coming under threat from an even more radical technology
   in the form of electronic publishing (e.p.). Unlike both traditional and
   computer typesetting, e.p. avoids the use of paper completely and re-
   places it with a computer display. The potential advantages of e.p. are
   obvious: massive savings in cost, virtually instaneous transmission; but
   there are disadvantages too, such as the difficulty of avoiding unauthor-
   ised copying, plagiarism, and re-distribution. There are also fundamental
   philosoocal diffeeerences: whereas typesetting systems dictate the exact ap-
   pearence of the onished page, e.p. systems may allow a far more abstract
   representation, with the final appearance being left very much up to the
   viewer. In this paper, I will outline recent developments in both computer
   typesetting and electronic publishing, and compare and contrast the two
   approaches.
