The office manager at my workplace still uses a typewriter to fill in certain forms that haven’t gone digital yet. I fill them in by hand because I don’t know how to use a typewriter.
If I have a form like that I just estimate the locations of what needs to be added, print it once, hold it over the form and if it fits put the form in the printer and print. You can get pretty good at estimating and you can, of course save anything that might be recurring.
When we have government permits to fill out, they are all on carbon paper and need typed on a typewriter.
I dread when one of these gets put in my box.
I went through 12 forms before I got it typed correctly.
When I hit the wrong key, my stomach instantly sinks.
I didn’t even know how to load the thing the first time. I had to ask a co-worker how to us it and she laughed at me. I told her I’ve learned on a computer my entire life. I have to use for such archaic things.
