The DEC VT20 terminal is a variant of the DEC VT05 terminal with special facilities for typesetting. Two VT20 terminals were connected to single PDP-11/05 (a variant of the 11/10) which was connected to a host system, either a larger PDP-11 or a DECsystem-10, running Typeset-11 or Typeset-10. Newspapers using Typeset-10 were The Kansas City Star, the Chicago Tribune, and the London, Ontario, Free Press.

The VT20/B is another variant with a different enclosure.
