You Software on Wednesday introduced You Control: Fonts, a new font menu utility for Mac OS X that displays the fonts in their own typeface and groups them in proper families. You Control: Fonts is separate from the application's own font menu -- it resides in the Mac OS X menu bar, next to your default system menu items.

The case of the fonts

The case of the fonts 09/12/2004 10:54 AM
In 1948, the young Richard Nixon made his bones by questioning Alger Hiss . And it all depended on a discussion of fonts. Alger Hiss was an aristocratic lawyer who worked for the State Department, and was prominent enough to have served as Secretary General at the founding meeting of the UN. Whittaker Chambers was a grubby-looking ex-Communist who claimed before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) in August 1948 that Hiss was a close friend and a member of the Party. Hiss — at the time, the president of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace — demanded to address...

Fonts in Safari

Fonts in Safari 03/20/2003 05:32 PM

An update on the issues raised by John Gruber in his blog.

(1) Safari *is* using the wrong fonts for rendering to the screen. Because of our use of lower-level APIs, we missed out on a font substitution step that happens when rendering to the screen where the bitmap font ends up getting chosen for rendering. This is a bug in Safari, and we're looking into fixing it.

(2) The global OS AA setting is not being obeyed.

(3) Above and beyond the OS AA setting, AppKit also has hardcoded rules at a higher level, e.g., don't AA Courier or Monaco. Again we are missing these hardcoded rules.

I'll keep you updated as we work on solutions to these problems. Thanks again, John, for the excellent analysis of Safari's font handling.

Copyright and digital fonts

Copyright and digital fonts 12/26/2004 09:03 PM
Xeni Jardin: [NSFNLG warning: Not Safe For Non-LawGeeks.] A recent post on BoingBoing sparked debate among some readers about whether or not U.S. copyright law makes it possible to protect typefaces. Digital music guru Jim Griffin maintains that the answer is no. He points to Volume 37 of the Code of Federal Regulations (Link) as one of several portions of US law that back his assertion. Snip from the text of the law, with his comments:

"The following are examples of works not subject to copyright and applications for registration of such works cannot be entertained: (...) typeface as typeface" 37 CFR 202.1(e).

House of Representatives report accompanied the new copyright law when passed in 1976: "The Committee has considered, but chosen to defer, the possibility of protecting the design of typefaces. A 'typeface' can be defined as a set of letters, numbers, or other symbolic characters, whose forms are related by repeating design elements consistently applied in a notational system and are intended to be embodied in articles whose intrinsic utilitarian function is for use in composing text or other cognizable combinations of characters. The Committee does not regard the design of typeface, as thus defined, to be a copyrightable 'pictorial, graphic, or sculptural work' within the meaning of this bill and the application of the dividing line in section 101." H.R. Rep. No. 94-1476, 94th Congress, 2d Session at 55 (1976), reprinted in1978 U.S. Cong. and Admin. News 5659, 5668.

It's also in accordance with a court case that has considered the matter: Eltra Corp. V. Ringer, 579 F.2d 294, 208 USPQ 1 (1978, C.A. 4, Va.).

The U.S. Copyright Office holds that a bitmapped font is nothing more than a computerized representation of a typeface, and as such is not copyrightable:

"The [September 29, 1988] Policy Decision [published at 53 FR 38110] based on the [October 10,] 1986 Notice of Inquiry [published at 51 FR 36410] reiterated a number of previous registration decisions made by the [Copyright] Office. First, under existing law, typeface as such is not registerable. The Policy Decision then went on to state the Office's position that 'data that merely represents an electronic depiction of a particular typeface or individual letterform' [that is, a bitmapped font] is also not registerable." 57 FR 6201.
