A pantograph (from Greek παντ- 'all, every' and γραφ- 'to write', from their original use for copying writing) is a mechanical linkage connected in a manner based on parallelograms so that the movement of one pen, in tracing an image, produces identical ...

With the help of a second scaling-down pantograph, the basic features of the portrait were transferred from the sheet in the form of dotted lines to a copper plate, which had previously been prepared with a ground for etching.

Pantograph may also refer to: Pantograph (lighting suspension), an overhead lighting system used in television and photography
Copy-evident documents have features that make it detectable that a copy is not the original. In security printing , various methods such as void pantograph are used to create patterns that are hard to copy exactly and when copied inexactly produces an easily detectable image.
