BertholdWeb: http://www.bertholdtypes.com/ The H. Berthold typefoundry was founded in 1858 by Hermann Berthold in Berlin, and developed a reputation for crafting high-quality typefaces.To complement their development of phototypesetting equipment in the 1950s Berthold created the Berthold Exklusiv Collection, a collection of typefaces created solely for Berthold by distinguished designers. As artistic director from 1961 to 1990, Günter Gerhard Lange was responsible for the creation, meticulous production standards, and attention to quality found in each of the Berthold Exklusivs. In 1991, Bernd Möllenstädt succeeded Lange as the type director for the Berthold Exklusiv Collection and continued Lange's tradition when directing the digitization of the Berthold Exklusivs. In 1991 Berthold licensed over 300 of the most popular Berthold typefaces to Adobe for release in PostScript Type 1 format as part of the Adobe type Library. In 1997 Berthold Types Limited published the complete Berthold Exklusiv Collection in Type 1 format with full ISO/Adobe character sets, and also became the exclusive source of the original Adobe versions. In 2000, Günter Gerhard Lange rejoined Berthold as an exclusive artistic consultant, and continues to expand the Berthold Exklusiv Collection which now contains over 800 typefaces.
