Easier to do in the late 80s with a word processor and a printer. Much more easy by the 90s with a computer using C&P, then clicking "print" Not so easy with an electronic Olivetti typewriter, several spools of black ink tape, and reams of paper, inserted one sheet at a time in 1980. Kubrick's secretary was also instructed to type that quote in many languages for the subtitled or dubbed foreign versions of the now classic horror movie, The Shining...Yikes!!
Hope that Kubrick paid her well.
Obviously that scene in the movie when Jack Torrance's wife Wendy, had snuck into his room, then came upon and rifled through those hundreds of manually typed sheets of paper, all with the same words maniacally typed over and over again, many in varying patterns of block format, would not have carried the same horrific effect, had the movie been made a couple of decades later.
