Joy in the Knowledge: A Companion to Maimonides’ Guide of the Perplexed
The English reading text is set in Arno. Spacious chapter openings lead into a single-column layout with inset quotations, occasional Hebrew terms and small-cap running heads. Numbered endnotes use a smaller setting with Hebrew passages and references, while the two-column index organises references to Maimonides’ writings.
The Jewish Fight for America
English typesetting in Arno combines a single-column reading text with small-cap book and chapter running heads and outer folios. Superscript note calls lead to collected endnotes, where hanging numbers, italic publication titles and page-range headings organise the references. Dialogue and extended quotations retain distinct paragraph spacing and speaker labels.
Friendship Fuels Business
Serif body text is paired with bold sans-serif subheadings and handwritten-style chapter titles. Grey labelled bands introduce practical action steps and chapter summaries; numbered lists use bold opening phrases and hanging indents. Drop initials mark chapter openings, with capital running heads and page numbers at the outer edges.
Jewish Mysticism: Essays on Maimonides’ The Guide of the Perplexed
The English text is set in Arno, with pointed Hebrew quotations in Frank Rühl. Small-cap book running heads, italic chapter running heads, drop capitals and inset quotations structure the single-column pages. Ruled footnotes, hanging bibliography entries and two-column source indexes provide the scholarly reference structure.
The Laws of Mourning
Living Niddah
English explanations alternate with vocalised Hebrew source quotations and indented translations. Italic running heads identify the section, while smaller numbered notes remain below short rules. Renana Typesetting’s printed credit names Elisheva Wadler for the typesetting.
The JPS Bible Commentary: 1 Samuel
Jewish Publication Society (JPS) · Published by University of Nebraska Press
English and Hebrew typesetting using Novarese, Arno and Livorna. Pointed and cantillated Hebrew and its English translation sit in parallel columns above the English commentary. Bold italic lead-ins, ruled section headings, running references and folios distinguish the layers; excursus essays use a continuous prose measure.
The Lions of Zion – Hebrew Edition
Hebrew typesetting for this illustrated edition. Single-column right-to-left text combines vocalised source passages, italic scientific names and numbered reference markers with bold subsection headings. Captioned photographs, coins and historical images are sized to the surrounding discussion. Centred chapter openings, fine rules and consistent running heads and folios give the pages a clear hierarchy.
Derekh Teshuva Horeita – Volume II
Echoes of Rashi: Bereishit
The commentary combines single-column English prose with vocalised Hebrew verses, English translations and centred small-cap section headings. Smaller source notes sit beneath short rules, and the running heads distinguish the book title from the weekly Torah portion.
Rosh Hashanah
Intifada Globalized
Likutey Halachos, Volume 3: Tefillin
Bedside Halacha
Typesetting for an English halachic handbook, with numbered provisions, nested bullet points and frequent source notes. Bold sans-serif headings distinguish lettered sections and smaller topics from the serif body text. Italic transliterated terms, superscript references and footnotes below fine rules preserve the hierarchy within compact reference pages.
The Mysticism of Andalusia: Exploring HaRambam’s Mystical Tradition
English scholarly typesetting in Arno combines centred chapter openings and drop capitals with a steady single-column text. Italic transliterations, occasional Hebrew terms, inset quotations and numbered footnotes support the discussion, while a compact two-column subject index provides a separate reference structure.

Design philosophy
A seamlessly typeset book is always our goal for each project. Our philosophy is that a sophisticated book is like a road: it should be smooth and easy to navigate. The reader should enjoy the entirety of the story without distraction or visual speed bumps. Good typography should, ironically, be appreciated but not noticed.
Our work
We adapt fonts when a project requires it, from adding glyphs and programming ta’amim (biblical cantillation marks) to adding the marks needed to represent Arabic sounds in Hebrew-script texts. We also write scripts to solve specific typesetting problems.
Details such as text figures, ligatures, true small caps and optical margin alignment help make a page balanced and comfortable to read. We guide established publishers and first-time authors through the typesetting process, from manuscript to print-ready PDF.
We’re passionate about typesetting your meticulously precise, exceptionally designed print & digital book
