Printing in Goa information


The art of printing first entered India through Goa. In a letter to St. Ignatius of Loyola, written on April 30, 1556,[1] Father Gasper Caleza speaks of a ship carrying a printing press setting sail for Abyssinia from Portugal, with the purpose of helping missionary work in Abyssinia. Circumstances prevented this printing press from leaving India, and consequently, printing was initiated in the country.
