Can we please all wait for Apple to clarify before getting too excited at another reason to hate the app store? As much as a sensationalist 'Apple are evil' might help promote your product only having one letter to go on and not waiting for

What this is actually saying is don't use Garamond for copy text as its not designed for current DPI's that are currently used on monitors. It doesn't mean you can't use it for titles or headings or devices with a high DPI.

This is true mainly on US keyboards. UK keyboards have all but the 'ctrl' icons printed on them. I have never understood why the US keyboards only have their text equivalents.
