The company was one of the world's first type foundries to have no history in the production of metal type. It is now a wholly owned brand or subsidiary of Monotype Imaging.

Among the company's notable type designers was Ed Benguiat, the creator of Tif ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
