FontShop International (FSI) was founded in Berlin in 1989 by Erik Spiekermann and Joan Spiekermann, who were then husband and wife. FontShop is the original font reseller in digital type history. There are six independent FontShops (licensors of the FontShop concept) in Europe, Australia, and the USA. FSI produces the FontFont typeface library and publishes FontBook, widely[who?] considered the most comprehensive printed reference on digital typefaces. In 2000 FSI started a royalty free image company called fStop (fStop). FontShop USA produces the twice annual publication font.
