I Guess No One Cares About Fonts
The real Segoe UI font as used in Office 12 ...
"Last week, I wrote about Segoe UI, the new font used to render the user interface of Office 12 and Windows Vista.
I intended it to be a little fluffy "FYI" piece. Little did I anticipate the flurry of comments and feedback and e-mail and blog entries. Font this, font that! Font font font font font!!!
So today, a little more about Segoe UI, starting with a mea culpa. To save time, I pulled the picture of Segoe UI I published last week from the beta version of the Windows Vista UX Guidelines in MSDN.
That was a mistake. It turns out that whomever made the picture used Segoe (Microsoft's corporate branding font) and not Segoe UI (which is the font we are using in the Office 12 interface.)" continued ... (Via Jensen Harris)
