**Update 4 Aug 2010:** See revised post: [How to Install Consolas on Mac OS X][revised]
[revised]: /technical/2010/08/howto-install-consolas-font-mac/
Today I followed my own <a href="/technical/2009/03/install-consolas-mac-osx/">directions on installing Consolas</a> on my Mac Pro. The original directions were put together when installing it on my Mac Book. The downloaded disk image had a different volume name, as did the meta package. So the the command I used to launch the font installer was:
open "/Volumes/Open XML File Format Converter for Mac 1.0/Open XML File Format Converter for Mac 1.0.mpkg/Contents/Packages/OpenXML_all_fonts.pkg"

With the introduction of Windows Vista and Office 2007 Microsoft included some new fonts, which became the defaults in Office. Their names all start with 'C' and they are quite attractive. In particular there is a monospaced font called <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consolas">Consolas</a> that is nice to use as a text editor font and Terminal font. The problem is they aren't technically free, although Microsoft does include them in a number of freely available updaters. What follows is how I went about installing the fonts on my Mac.
