A native of St. Vith in the Duchy of Luxembourg, Reulandt took over Moritz Schmalhertz's printing shop in the city of Luxembourg in 1618, and bought up the printing stock from the widow and heirs of Matthias Birton.[1] There he printed numerous German editions of the decrees of the Archdukes Albert and Isabella (to 1621) and of Philip IV of Spain (from 1621), as well as Jesuit school drama, devotional works, and grammar-school classics such as Horace and Ovid.[2] After he moved to Trier in 1640 there was no printer active in Luxembourg until 1686. In Trier he worked as printer to the Prince-Bishop.
