Why don’t all of my fonts appear in the Fonts menu?
You may not have all of your fonts placed correctly. All the fonts should be
installed in the Fonts folder in the System Folder.
Additionally, some application programs let the user decide which fonts
should appear in the Fonts menu. Check the manuals that came with your
programs.
Why can’t I see my Monaco 9, Geneva 9 and 12, and Chicago 12 bitmapped fonts?
These fonts are used by your Mac OS–based computer to display information.
Because the computer needs these fonts, the Finder makes them invisible to
prevent users from removing them.
What does the term
Apple classic fonts
mean?
The Apple classic fonts are the original ten bitmapped fonts that came with
the first Macintosh in 1984. These fonts, which all have city names, include
Athens, Cairo (a picture font), Chicago, Geneva, London, Los Angeles,
Monaco, New York, San Francisco, and Venice. Several of the fonts (Athens,
Cairo, London, and San Francisco) came in only one size—18 points.
Chicago, Geneva, Monaco, and New York are currently available in TrueType
versions. The other classic fonts are still only available in bitmapped versions.
Why do I sometimes get Geneva or Courier in my printed documents when I have
specified other fonts?
Geneva sometimes appears when you’re trying to use a TrueType font but
don’t have enough memory for scaling to operate properly.
Substitute fonts can also appear in a document composed on one Macintosh
that has a particular set of fonts but printed on another Macintosh that doesn’t
have those fonts.
