Aleksander Augezdecki

Aleksander Augezdecki, a Czech printer from Pilzno, working in the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. He worked in the printing house of his father-in-law Paweł Olivetski in Litomyśl. There he learned how to make fonts. After the principal's death, he ran a publishing house, which became his property in 1542. In 1549 he moved to Królewiec, where until 1556 he printed in Polish and German. Working with Stanisław Murzynowski and Seklucjan, he took care of the substantive and spelling correctness of the prints. From 1563 he was active again in Litomyśl. In 1580, the typographic resources after Augezdecki were purchased by Andrzej Graudenc (from Grudziądz).
