Pierre Haultin

Pierre Haultin (c. 1510 – 1587) was a French printer, publisher, punchcutter and typefounder.[1][2][3][4][5][6] A French Calvinist, Haultin ran a printing office in La Rochelle from 1571 to 1587, and before that worked in Paris and Geneva.[7] Haultin engraved many typefaces, including romans, italics, Greek and music type, which were widely used across Europe; his nephew Jerome Haultin lived in London from around 1568 and sold his types there.[8]
