In 1795 Firmin Didot perfected a stereotypy system usable on an industrial scale. Each page was composed with hollowed matrices into which the alloy was poured directly avoiding letter-by-letter composition. It was only after 1798 that Didot took up the classics. Let us recall that the famous Didot typeface dominated the entire 19th century and that the stereotype edition forms a major milestone in the history of printing as the Elsevier editions were in their time.
