== Printings of the Tanya == In 1795, handwritten copies of the Tanya began to circulate. Due to intentional forgeries, the Alter Rebbe decided to have it printed officially only and prohibited its copying for five years. In 1796, the Tanya was first printed in the Slavita printing house. Since then, the sefer has been printed dozens of times, based on copies from this printing. In 1900, the thirty-sixth edition was printed at the Widow and Brothers Rom printing house in Vilna. In this printing, all parts of the sefer were proofread against original manuscripts and corrected from mistakes that had appeared in previous editions. In 1909, the printers sold the exclusive printing rights of the corrected edition to the Rebbe Rashab, for the benefit of Yeshivas Tomchei Tmimim. From then on, following the Frierdiker Rebbe's hora'ah, all printings of the sefer are photographic reproductions of this edition. In 1942, the official publishing house of Chabad Chassidus named Kehos was established, and the printing rights were transferred to Kehos by its founder, the Frierdiker Rebbe.
