1937年，德國設計師Emil Rudolf Weiss為 Bauer 字體鑄造廠設計瞭Weiss Rundgotisch。在他們的字體目錄中，Bauer一開始引用瞭Leonhard Wagner的話：圓圓的哥特式（rundgotisch）字體是最美麗的字體;她被稱為母親和女王。在設計Weiss Rundgotisch時，Weiss受到瞭Augsberg印刷商Erhard Ratdolt的文藝復興時期字體風格的啟發。Ratdolt曾在威尼斯呆過一段時間，他很可能就是在那裡熟悉瞭圓圓的哥特式字母。這種字體在德國從來沒有像德文Fraktur 或者Gotisch那樣流行，但圓型哥特式字體在那裡使用瞭幾個世紀，代表瞭藝術和工藝的感覺，以及老式的手工。
對於黑體字，Weiss Rundgotisch與普通的襯線字體和無襯線字體設計非常相似，尤其是它的大寫字母，似乎也有一些特殊的影響。因此，對於當代讀者來說，Weiss Rundgotisch更易於閱讀，對於任何想要設置文本、標識或標題的人來說，這是一個非常好的選擇。
Weiss Rundgotisch顯然是一個很難設計的字體，即使對於像Weiss這樣的大師來說也是如此。他從1915年開始研究; Weiss Rundgotisch的研發花瞭20多年才完成。”
The German designer Emil Rudolf Weiss originally created Weiss Rundgotisch for the Bauer typefoundry in 1937. In their catalog for the typeface, Bauer began with this quote from Leonhard Wagner: The round gothic (rundgotisch) script is the most beautiful kind of script; she is called the mother and the queen of all the rest."
While designing Weiss Rundgotisch, Weiss was inspired by Renaissance types cut by the Augsberg printer Erhard Ratdolt. Ratdolt had spent some time in Venice, which is most likely where he became familiar with round gothic letters. This sort of letterform was never as popular in Germany as Fraktur or Gotisch may have been, but round gothic types were used there for centuries to represent arts and craft feelings, as well as old-fashioned handwork.
For a blackletter typeface, Weiss Rundgotisch is very similar to normal serif and sans serif designs, especially its uppercase letters, which seem to have some uncial influence in them as well. Therefore, Weiss Rundgotisch is more legible for contemporary readers, making this an excellent choice for anyone looking to set text, logos, or headlines with in blackletter.
Weiss Rundgotisch was apparently quite a difficult typeface to design, even for a master designer like Weiss. He began work on the face in 1915; Weiss Rundgotisch’s development took over 20 years to complete."
