гранки (Galley proofs are so named because in the days of hand-set letterpress printing, the printer would set the page into galleys–the metal trays into which type was laid and tightened into place–which would then be used to print limited copies for proofreading. ... The printer would then receive the edits, re-arrange the type, and print the final copy. Some publishers use paper galley proofs as advance copies, providing them to reviewers, magazines, and libraries in advance of final publication; these print-on-demand (POD) pre-publication publicity proofs are normally bound, but may be lacking illustrations (or have them in black and white only). Proofs in electronic form are rarely offered for advance reading. Proofs issued in the proofreading and copy-editing review phase are called galleys or galley proofs; proofs created in a near-final version for editing and checking purposes are called page proofs.
