what innovations were introduced to chinese publishing during the ming
picture books for the illiterate - no words, only drawings

metal repeatable type - thus allowing for cheap mass production
permanent inks! finally the writing could survive the hardships of life without being destroyed

Explanation:

During the Ming dynasty in China, book - printing in the vernacular language made books more accessible to a wider audience. Picture - books for the illiterate were not a major Ming - era innovation. Metal movable type was an earlier innovation (Song dynasty, though improved in later periods), and permanent inks were not a distinct Ming - specific innovation in publishing.

book printing in the vernacular language making them more assessable
