The printer Chaim Schachor from Prague is considered the first to print Hebrew texts in German-speaking countries. His description as an "itinerant printer" is mainly due to the difficult political conditions for Jews and economic constraints. When the order situation was weak, Chaim Schachor was able to use the workshops of Christian printers. If he had no opportunity to print, he earned his money as a bookseller.
