John Collins has been with Bitstream since 1986. He currently holds the position of Vice President and Chief Technology Officer.
Since joining the company, he has been active in the development of several key pieces of font technology which have established Bitstream as a leader in its field. These technologies include Fontware, Speedo, 4-in-1, TrueDoc and, most recently, the world's smallest stroke-based fonts for Chinese, Japanese and Korean languages. These developments have resulted in five U.S. patents being awarded.
Prior to joining Bitstream, he held positions with Linotype Canada where he developed a line of low-cost interactive composition systems and SYS Computer Corporation, where he developed advanced (for that time) microprogrammed video display controllers.
Mr. Collins holds both B.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of London, England. |
