Default What is "shimming" a jointer?

I've seen several people having to shim their jointer when setting it up, but I
don't know what this means. I think most of the comments were in regard to a
model with table extensions, specifically the Sunhill 6" jointer. What is
shimming, why is it necessary, how is it done, and is it difficult?
