During the whole of the 18th century the old tradition of using Greek types designed to conform to the Byzantine cursive hand with many ligatures and abbreviations - as it was originated by Aldus Manutius in Venice and consolidated by Claude Garamont (Grecs du Roy) - was still much in practice, although clearly on the wane. GFS Gazis is a typical German example of this practice as it appeared at the end of that era in the 1790's. Its name pays tribute to Anthimos Gazis (1758-1828), one of the most prolific Greek thinkers of the period, who was responsible for writing, translating and editing numerous books, including the editorship of the important Greek periodical Ερμής ο Λόγιος (Litterary Hermes) in Wien. GFS Gazis has been digitally designed by George D. Matthiopoulos.
 
Description
Pendant toute la durée du 18ème siècle, la tradition de l'utilisation de fontes grecques visant à se conformer à la cursive byzantine avec de nombreuses ligatures et abréviations - comme elle a été lancée par Alde Manuce à Venise et consolidée par Claude Garamont (Grecs du Roy) - était encore beaucoup dans la pratique, bien que clairement sur ​​le déclin. GFS Gazis est un exemple allemand typique de cette pratique, car il est apparu à la fin de cette époque dans les années 1790. Son nom rend hommage à Anthimos Gazis (1758-1828), l'un des penseurs grecs les plus prolifiques de l'époque, qui était responsable de la rédaction, la traduction et l'édition de nombreux livres, dont le rédacteur en chef de l'importante revue grecque Ερμής ο Λόγιος (Littéraire Hermes) à Vienne. GFS Gazis a été conçue numériquement par George D. Matthiopoulos.

Former Greek types had harked back to classical models. In 1927, Victor Scholderer chose instead to revive one which had first appeared in a 1492 printing of Macrobius attributed to Joannes Rubeus. In 1993-4 the typeface was digitized by the Greek Font Society, with the addition of a new set of epigraphic symbols.

ancient Greek oblique font revival (companion to GFS Didot)

In Greece the terms italic and oblique have the same meaning since they are borrowed from the latin typographic practice without any real historical equivalent in Greek history. Until the end of the 19th century Greek typefaces were cut and cast independently, not as members of a typefamily. The mechanisation of typecutting allowed the transformation of upright Greek typefaces to oblique designs. Nonetheless, the typesetting practice of a cursive Greek font to complement an upright one did not survive the 19th century. The experimental font GFS Olga (1995) attempts to revive this lost tradition. The typeface was designed and digitised by George Matthiopoulos, based on the historical Porson Greek type (1803) with the intention to be the companion of the upright GFS Didot font whenever there is a need for an italic alternative.

In England, during the 1790's, Cambridge University Press decided to procure a new set of Greek types. The university’s great scholar of Classics, Richard Porson was asked to produce a typeface based on his handsome handwriting and Richard Austin was commissioned to cut the types. The type was completed in 1808, after the untimely death of Porson the previous year. Its success was immediate and since then the classical editions in Great Britain and the U.S.A. use it, almost invariably. In 1913, Monotype released the typeface with some corrections, notably replacing the upright capitals suggested by Porson with inclined ones. In Greece the typeface was used under the name Pelasgika type. GFS Porson is based on the Monotype version, though using upright capitals, as in the original.
 
Description
En Angleterre, dans les années 1790, Cambridge University Press décida de se procurer un nouvel ensemble de fontes grecques. Il fut demandé au grand érudit de l'université de lettres classiques Richard Porson de produire une fonte basée sur sa belle écriture et Richard Austin fut chargé de graver les fontes. La fonte a été achevée en 1808, après la mort prématurée de Porson l'année précédente. Son succès a été immédiat et depuis lors, les éditions classiques en Grande-Bretagne et aux États-Unis l'utilisent presque toujours. En 1913, Monotype publia la police avec quelques corrections, en remplaçant notamment les capitales droites suggérées par Porson par les inclinées. En Grèce, la police fut utilisée sous le nom de fonte Pelasgika. GFS Porson est basée sur la version de Monotype, mais avec les capitales droites, comme dans l'original.

From the middle of the 19th century an italic font with many calligraphic overtones was introduced into Greek printing. Its source is unknown, but it almost certainly was the product of a German or Italian foundry. In the first type specimen printed in Greece by the typecutter K. Miliadis (1850), the font was listed anonymously along others of 11pts and in the Gr. Doumas' undated specimen appeared as «11pt Greek inclined». For most of the second half of the century the type was used extensively as an italic for emphasis in words, sentences or excerpts. In 1889, the folio size Type Specimen of Anestis Konstantinidis' publishing, printing and type founding establishment also included the type as «Greek inclined [9 & 12 pt]».
