Takis Katsoulidis, having edited an album in 1980 with the Imperial documents of Patmos for the National Research Foundation, observed that these writings have a peculiar, own character that intrigued him. So, he came back to them later by selecting one of the documents, namely the Chrysobull Nikephoros III of Votaneiatou of 1079, and used it as a template for his font.
