La typographie est [...] un élément important dans la composition de tout écrit en vue d'être publié. Il s'agit au sens large de la manière dont est mis en forme un texte, par l'usage des polices, de la taille des caractères employés, [de] la forme des paragraphes, etc. [...] on différencie la typographie, qui consiste [...] à mettre en forme un texte, et l'orthotypographie qui signifie mettre en forme un texte de manière correcte, en respectant certaines règles. [...] L'orthotypographie regroupe toutes les normes qui régissent, non par l'orthographe d'un mot à proprement parler, mais celles qui ont trait à l'usage des espaces, des abréviations, des majuscules ou encore de la ponctuation. En somme, tout ce qui entoure le mot.

The managing editor directly supervises the day-to-day operations of the publication, and reports to the editor in chief. A major portion of the managing editor's job involves hiring and overseeing associate and assistant editors. He may write a column or editorial sometimes, and is more likely to edit articles on occasion than the editor in chief would be. The managing editor's job takes place primarily in the office – it is to suggest ideas, assign articles, handle problems, keep the staff on schedule and answer questions from department editors. The managing editor determines the importance of articles and what goes on the front page.
