Prior to the introduction of Arial and Times New Roman, Microsoft used two bitmap fonts called Helv and Tms Rmn in Windows 1.0, each being unlicensed imitations of better-known fonts already covered here.
Although this project is later unavailable on Microsoft's site, the license terms that allow these fonts to be distributed from third-party sites make packages like ttf-ms-fonts AUR possible. Microsoft used to provide many core fonts in its Core fonts for the Web project. While some of these fonts are just a cheaper version (or look-alike) of corresponding PostScript families, Cambria and Calibri (default font since MS Office 2007) are independent from other families. Microsoft bundles a number of fonts with Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office. It is, however, not guaranteed to be metric-identical. You may use EB Garamond for more OpenType features, including the 12pt size. URW's Garamond No.8 only provides one optical size (8pt). Many of the dual font names are caused by a batch update. PostScript 3 defines an additional 101 fonts, many of which are made available by URW under the AFPL in GhostPDL. Projects including GUST's TeX Gyre and GNU FreeFont release enhanced versions of these fonts. URW released open-source versions/clones of these 35 fonts for w:ghostscript, available as gsfonts. The PostScript language defines 35 core fonts in PostScript 2. This table is roughly based on fontconfig's nf and Wikipedia pages for individual fonts.Ĭlarendon URW Bold Condensed, C011 Bold Condensed In the following table, commonly-specified families are shown in bold.
