Telautograph \Tel*au"to*graph\, n. [Gr. th^le far + autograph.]
   A facsimile telegraph for reproducing writing, pictures,
   maps, etc. In the transmitter the motions of the pencil are
   communicated by levers to two rotary shafts, by which
   variations in current are produced in two separate circuits.
   In the receiver these variations are utilized by
   electromagnetic devices and levers to move a pen as the
   pencil moves. -- {Tel`au*tog"ra*phist}, n.
