The practice or process of writing or producing documents in duplicate simultaneously.
From Greek 'diplos' (double) + 'graphia' (writing, description). This term evolved in the 19th century alongside mechanical technologies for document reproduction.
Diplography was how busy officials and businesses stayed organized before copy machines existed—having two identical originals meant both parties could keep exact records without rewriting.
