Creating a seamless experience for your readers
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.
A complex scholarly edition with side notes, run-on footnotes and endnotes. Custom scripts place the notes precisely, while specially created glyphs support the Hebrew and transliterated text. Different optical sizes of Garamond Premier Pro keep the visual weight of the main text and notes balanced.

OUR WORK
With over 30 years of experience, we design and typeset books in English, Hebrew and other languages, with particular care for complex multilingual and scholarly works.
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.
