Totally,

I got your point, that’s why  I’m asking for those screen-shoots.

As Jonathan said, Purr Data uses a CSS trick which allows browsers to load 
Fonts overriding the OS. (the fonts are not installed on the system). This is 
relatively new, before that there was a limited amount of safe web fonts.

Vanilla atm is not installing fonts on the OS afaik. And traditionally, fonts 
that are not installed on the Os are not available to the Apps.

Don’t get me wrong, we are on the same side & I`m telling a couple of things 
that I know.


----------
On Windows there’s another monospace font that is shippped since Vista.

Try “Consolas”,  <----Case-sensitive. (-font-weight normal).

Subject: Re: [PD] cross platforms issues with displaying fonts in vanilla but 
not in Purr Data

<[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>:

it sounds that you are saying that if a vanilla patch does not look as how you 
see it in your Mac is “bad”.

yes, or kinda, as I wouldn't  say it like that, I can also say that if a 
vanilla patch doesn't look as how you see it in linux or windows, it is bad... 
it is a two way street here, and my concern is that things work out of the box 
for cross platforms.

Or, like I said it myself


I just hoped we could make vanilla laod the same fonts in all platforms and 
that patches would all look the same as in Purr Data, what's preventing it from 
happening?


And by "what's preventing it from happening?" I'm basically asking: What is it 
that we should do to make it happen that we are not doing right now, and why 
are we not doing it?

cheers
