"who didn't get the whole V=U thing...Bolshiest bunch of printers I've ever come across"
As a Printer/Printmaker, I find that irritating.
Not to derail the topic, but, I could maybe understand the using V instead of U might seem a bit, dare I say, tacky, nowadays, but, seeing as it's essentially targeting a specific audience who'd "get it", maybe not such a big deal. Typographers [used to] be pretty clever, if obnoxious, in their linguistic knowledge and humor.
…At least they're not using Papyrus as the font…?
*shrug*
