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.

Installation
|
||||||
|
------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Download the Open XML File Format Converter for Mac from the
|
||||||
|
[Microsoft Mactopia download page][download].
|
||||||
|
2. Double click the disk image if it wasn't automatically mounted. You will
|
||||||
|
see an Open XML File Format Converter meta package (.mpkg).
|
||||||
|
3. Right click (or Control-click) the meta package and choose "Show Package Contents".
|
||||||
|
4. In the Finder window that opens, click "Contents", then "Packages".
|
||||||
|
5. Double click "OpenXML\_all\_fonts.pkg", which will run the installer.

Fine Tuning
|
||||||
|
-----------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At this point Consolas is now installed, but depending on your font smoothing
|
||||||
|
settings it [may look a bit thin and ugly][smoothing]. This can be fixed by
|
||||||
|
adjusting these settings.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[smoothing]: /technical/2009/09/font-smoothing-in-snow-leopard/
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For Mac OS X Snow Leopard its necessary to set the right value in the Terminal
|
||||||
|
because Apple removed it from System Preferences:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Open Terminal (Applications > Utilities > Terminal)
|
||||||
|
1. Copy and paste the following at the terminal prompt and press Return:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`defaults -currentHost write -globalDomain AppleFontSmoothing -int 2`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For the Terminal shy, this is what the command is doing: The
|
||||||
|
[`defaults`][defaults] command manipulates the user defaults, also known as
|
||||||
|
preferences. This particular use of it sets the AppleFontSmoothing setting at
|
||||||
|
the global (I.e. all users or system) level to the integer 2, which corresponds
|
||||||
|
to the Medium font smoothing setting in previous versions of Mac OS X.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[defaults]: http://developer.apple.com/DOCUMENTATION/DARWIN/Reference/ManPages/man1/defaults.1.html
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For Mac OS X Leopard or earlier its easier:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Open System Preferences
|
||||||
|
1. Click "Appearance"
|
||||||
|
1. At the bottom, set Font smoothing to, "Medium (best for Flat Panel)"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You will need to restart any running applications for them to pick up the new
|
||||||
|
font smoothing settings.
