ABOUT

Vibert

French typefounder, born ca. 1775. Vibert, Vibert Pè et Fils, and Vibert Fils, operated a foundry in Paris from 1797 onwards. He was the Didot family's punchcutter. There is a publication in 1805 entitled Epreuves des caractères de la fonderie de Vibert et Luy, Paris (16 pages). Deberny named a didone typeface after him, Gras Vibert. Paulo W made a 4-style family, also called Gras Vibert (2006, Intellecta Design). For another digital version of Gras Vibert, see Vibertus (2007, Lars Törnqvist).
