Giovanni (fl.1482–1503)[1] and Gregorio (fl.1496–1527)[1] De' Gregori (Latin: Johannes & Gregorius de Gregoriis) were two Italian brothers from Forlì who worked as printers in Renaissance Venice. They are generally credited with the first attractive type in nonpareil size for a 1498[2] or 1501[3] edition of the divine offices.
