Summary:
Typography makes the basis for every work in the field of graphic communications. How the message will be conveyed depends on the quality of the typographic letter, as well as on the author's knowledge of making a good typographic composition. As we live in the country whose national heritage is based on the specifics of the Cyrillic alphabet, which is not so widespread in the world, it is very important that we nurture and develop the field of typography. First of all, I think that we should invest in the education of the new generations of future designers of typographic letters, and then, in the generations of those who are trained to properly and functionally determine the text's typographic composition, and harmoniously combine the text and the image. Serbian history of typography is not so long, but it has certainly given rise to several world famous names in this field. Among those names is the name of Ivan Boldiar, who promoted the Cyrillic alphabet and dedicated his entire life to the development and design of it, dealing with both reconstruction of the existing and design of the original typefaces. These typefaces have later found wide application. Unfortunately, there is very little literature dealing with the topic of Serbian or Yugoslav typography. Therefore, this research is mostly based on the conversations held with the surviving protagonists of those times, and on reviewing documentary footage found in the archive of the artist's family. This text is an attempt to contribute to the creation of literature on an important, but insufficiently researched filed Serbian typography.
