Jean François Porchez credits Le Henaff for introducing him to type design. In the late 1980s Porchez was studying graphic design at a school called EMSAT: “We had a guest teacher there named Ronan Le Henaff, who had been a trainee at the
ANCT in Paris, a school specializing in type design. He introduced me to calligraphy and type design and made me realize that there were other career paths beyond graphic design or advertising.”
