ABOUT

Adam Rot

Roman printer, d. 1475. Some think he is the same as Adam(o) de Ambergau, a contemporary printer in Venice, but others refute that. Rot used a proto-roman typeface in Rome to print Dominicus de Sancto Geminiano's Lecturae super secunda parte sexti Decretalium in 1471 and used it until 1474. A digital revival was undertaken by Alexis Faudot and Rafael Ribas in 2016 at a type design workshop at HBK Saar and Bibliothèque municipale de Metz, Sarrebrücken. That typeface is Rot 102R by Faudot and Ribas.
