Does anyone know of a company that will sell individual fonts (rather
than collections)? I need Lucida Grande for XP (my Windows box doesn't
have it). I'm trying to make some documentation in Wordpad on my XP box
whilst I work on an RB program on my Mac. Even Charcoal would do if I
could find it.

The first menu bar, or System font was Chicago.
Although retaining Chicago, System 7.5 introduced Espy as the font for
Newton and Apple's eWorld online service. Screen shots of the ill
fated Copland OS (also known as OS 8 at times) showed Espy as the
system font. This is a terrificly readable screen font.
When Mac OS 8 actually shipped, it had only a few of the Copland
features and used Charcoal as system font, a sort of cross between
Chicago and Espy, rather than Espy itself.
All versions of OS X have used Lucida Grande as the standard default
system font.

Dumb question, but what's the font (name) used by OS X 10.3 for the
menu bar?
