It's more that I half-expected well-known mappings to be baked in. Like "Times" -> "Times New Roman".
Didn't they also name one of their new fonts "SanFrancisco" much to the ire of Susan Kare fans.
- jasomill 3y agoYes, but the current OpenType San Francisco fonts use "SF" in their (display and internal) names, so no naming conflict exists with the original "ransom note" bitmap font. Also, as far as I know, of the original Mac fonts, Apple only ever shipped TrueType versions of Chicago, Geneva, Monaco, and New York. And I'm not aware of any OS with native support for both OpenType and classic Mac bitmap fonts (conversions are always possible, of course).
