| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Officina Plantin-Moretus is a famous printing-publishiong company founded at Antwerp by a Frenchman Christophe Plantin(1520?-1589). The Officina flourished as the greatest printing-publishing center, from the second half of the 16th century to the first half of the 17th century. Not only the publications, of course , also , such as type , woodblocks , equipment etc, everything has been very carefully preserved along with the historical building .
