This Armenian translation of the Gregorian calendar was printed by the Vatican press run by Domenico Basa with the Armenian types which the French typographer Robert Granjon had designed shortly after his arrival in Rome and shown to Pope Gregory XIII in 1579.

The title page shows, beneath the title, the coat of arms of Gregory XIII's family, the Boncompagni.
