Acta eruditorum. 1698
Acta eruditorum is a 1698 scholarly journal issued in Leipzig by the publishers J. Grossius and J.F. Gletitsch for learned readers across Europe. Its geometry plates show compass-and-straightline constructions of curves, arcs and tangents drawn in fine black ink on aged paper, while the decorative capital Q and the spaced roman caps ACTA offer period letterforms a designer could adapt.
