“If we can put a man on the moon,
surely we can build a letter machine”
Nonbye’s founder, Ole Nonbye, made history in foil technology when he invented
the first machine capable of hot-stamping entire words in foil. Inspired by the
groundbreaking technological achievements of 1969, he expressed his vision with the words:
“If we can put a man on the moon, surely we can build a letter machine”
Exactly ten years after the moon landing, in 1979, the world’s first letter machine
became a reality. Its name, of course: SpaceMatic.

My father was an exceptionally skilled sign painter, where only the very best was ever good enough. It’s quite remarkable to think that a craftsman — with no knowledge of computers, IT, or automation — could realize his vision and be the first in the world to do so!
He was meticulous about both the typefaces and — perhaps most importantly — the spacing between letters. That’s why he developed the digital spacing adjustment system for 575 fonts, covering every combination of letters, numbers, and special characters. That’s roughly 12,000 combinations per typeface.
