The Monotype Corporation identify [Granjon's] designs as forming the basis for Plantin and Times New Roman, but this is wholly untrue.from 'ROBERT GRANJON (FRENCH, CA. 1513–1589)' at Mike Parker's Story of Type
In fact most of the letter a’s in this font are wrong-fount characters, and the italic is a later type that has nothing to do with Granjon.from James Mosley at Granjon's Gros Cicero
