Answer:
Traditionally any document, record, or text inscribed by hand is perceived as the Manuscript. The following are the reasons why the manuscript was not used widely in everyday life prior to the age of print in India:
1. The manuscripts were delicate material thus could be destroyed by regular handling.
2. It could not serve the growing demand for copies; copying was an extensively expensive laborious and time-consuming task.
3. Carrying manuscripts everywhere was also not possible thus the sphere for its circulation remained limited.
