This book is set in Janson, named for Dutch punch-cutter and printer Anton Janson. Research in the 1970s and early 1980s, however, concluded that the typeface was in fact the work of a Transylvanian punch-cutter named Miklós Tótfalusi Kis. Kis traveled to Amsterdam in 1680 to apprentice under Dirk Voskens and produced a roman text face there. Based upon this original, Linotype Janson was cut in 1954 under the supervision of Hermann Zapf. Linotype’s modern digital version was prepared in 1985 by Adrian Frutiger based again on Kis’s originals and Zapf’s machine version. Janson shows strong influence of the Dutch Baroque typefaces.
