New fonts and typographic features in Snow Leopard
The latest version of Mac OS X comes with four new fonts.
The latest version of Mac OS X comes with four new fonts. Chalkboard, Menlo (a monospaced family based on Bitstream’s Vera Sans Mono that replaces Monaco for applications such as Terminal and code editors), Heiti SC and TC and Hiragino Sans GB. There’s also better support for bidirectional text, automated text substitutions system-wide (so, for example, typing (c) gets you ?), and you can now draw Chinese characters on your trackpad as an input method. Neat.
