Mac's standard system font
« on: August 23, 2003, 09:57:28 AM »
What is the name of that beautiful font? Is there any way I can get it to my pc as my system font?

Thanks
Kostas

Did you mean this one:

If so - that's Lucida Grande (as it says!) but I have no idea how you'd use it on a PC. The font file on OSX is a 2.6MB dfont - identified as a "Data-fork font suitcase"

@hnl_dk
I've installed them on my system and it's all OK (TTF-Manager).

But since I've got the whole system fully localized in greek, I'd rather stick on the HelveticaGr.font ;-)
