Abstract
Developments in the modelling of stellar atmospheres and results from the confrontation between calculated and observed fluxes and spectra are discussed. It is argued that, although impressive advances in the study of O-type, WR and cool star spectra have recently occurred, significant improvements should be possible with already existing methods in the analysis of, e.g., solar-type stars.
