Windows Vista Fonts

by Ryan Parman • August 31, 2005 • Apple, Design • 3 comments

I found these a couple of weeks back, and I think they’re really good, so I wanted to share them. They’re 6 fonts that are supposed to be included in Windows Vista, but they seem to work for both Windows XP and Mac OS X. Also for you sIFR users out there, I created sIFR versions that you can apply to your sites.

I found these floating around online, and presumably they’ll be free at some point, so I think it would be reasonable to assume that it’s okay to pass these around. I didn’t see anything in the zip file to tell me otherwise, so that’s what I’m going to believe. If someone at Microsoft has a problem with this, let me know and I’ll pull them offline.

« Update » It was suggested to me that it would be wise to remove these links. I’ve decided to heed that advice. Sorry folks!

Dear,
