text:
Robert B. Wray cast a movable type font for printing Bengali script in 1778. It proved revolutionary for the British rule in India. Warren Hastings had taken over as the Governor-General of India. By the Regulating Act of 1773, he had become the Governor-General over the empire that had been established by the British East India Company in India. The officials of Hastings were motivated by the European Classicism. They were of the firm view that the rule of Britain over India was transitory. Soo
