Linotype « MyFonts

Founded: 1886
Location: Linotype GmbH Werner-Reimers-Strasse 2-4 Bad Homburg, D-61352 Germany

For most of Linotype’s existence, font development has been aimed exclusively at the company’s own typesetting products. During this long and prosperous period, Linotype became the standard against which all other font libraries were measured. Later, under the leadership of Mike Parker, the company made Helvetica the closest thing to a household word that a font name has ever achieved.

Not until the early 1980s, however, were the first tentative steps taken to make its font library available for use on equipment other than its own.
