Abstract
The spread and development of Chinese printing has experienced three stages of spreading around China, Central Asia, West Asia and Europe, which has played an important role in promoting the development of the land and Maritime Silk Road. In fact, the spread of Chinese typography not only promoted the cultural prosperity of the Chinese cultural circle, but also made the Central Asian and Western Asian cultural circles become the hub of cultural exchange between China and the West, and promoted the development of Western modern history represented by the Renaissance. It provides important technical support for the formation of the “Belt and Road” cultural circle.
