Galleys: In traditional publishing it is the type set in long columns and not laid out on a page. In desktop publishing, galleys can be printed out using a page-assembly program (like "Adobe In Design" for instance) for proofreading and copyfitting purposes.
Greeked text: In page-assembly programs it is the text that appears as gray bars approximating the lines of type rather than actual characters themselves. This speeds up the amount of time it takes to draw the images on the screen.
Gray-scale image: A deep bitmap that records with each dot its gray-scale level. The impression of greenness is a function of the size of the dot. A group of large dots looks darker and a group of small dots looks lighter.
Gutter: In double-sided documents it is the combination of the inside margins of facing pages. The gutter should be wide enough to accommodate any binding if required.
