If you have attended
ATypI 2010 Conference in Dublin, you may have found a little KLTF discount coupon, nicely printed by

The conference
This year’s conference – scheduled 8.–12. September 2010 – had an impressive
list of speakers which was even more of a delight as there were a number of respected collegues and friends among them like
Jos Buivenga,
Bas Jacobs,
Thomas Milo,
Dan Reynolds, and the folks of DTL, FontLab and URW++.
See Florian Hardwig’s
(p)review, some
first impressions, a look into the
goodie bag full of impressive items, a summary of
PreFace and the main conference’s
day one &
day two &
day three.
[1] Then, reports by Dan Reynold,
part 1 &
part 2 &
part 3. Finally, some
pictures.
Getting there
For conference locations see the official
conference map.
Aircoach connects Dublin Airport with Dublin:
route 1 and
route 2. Relevant stops seem to be
O’Connell Street between Royal Dublin Hotel and Gresham Hotel (arrival and departure),
Grafton Street by Trinity College (arrival), and
Suffolk Street near McCullough Piggott’s (departure). No warranties that I identified bus stop locations correctly! Further, their
time table and
fares.
The Dublin Airport site offers
alternatives.
p.s.
Still I wonder how Mr Reynolds managed to make ATypI happen in Dublin this year so as to create a typographically perfect context for his
Victor Hammer talk ...

[1] Post scriptum, April 2022: Many thanks to Florian Hardwig for having made sure that his texts got archived – and letting me know about it. Sadly, Monotype did not seem to care, and eventually
myfonts.de and
fontfeed.com disappeared. Even more sadly, our oh-so-honorable ATypI did not bother to preserve
atypi.org pages for past conferences, either, so most of the above links will get you nowhere now.
