Typography Papers is the series of ‘continuing-but-not-annual’ publications which began in 1995 at the Department of Typography & Graphic Communication, University of Reading, as a place for serious writing on typography and related matters. It was conceived by Paul Stiff, who also edited most of the past issues. The ninth number, the latest to be issued, has been edited by Eric Kindel and Paul Luna.

In 2007 a two-day conference about non-Latin typefaces was held at the Department of Typography & Graphics Communication, University of Reading. The accompanying exhibition was the first of its kind showing items from both institutions and some private collections. It included historical type specimens, technical drawings, sketches, photographs, all relating to non-Latin typefaces.
