The Foulis brothers were booksellers, publishers and editors as well as printers. They emphasized careful proofreading, and they used type fonts similar to Caslon’s. The brothers influenced the appearance of the 18th century title page, declaring that it should utilize “no lower case, nor italics, nor two sizes of capitals in the same line.”
