I created this "Lucida MAC" Type1 font.

Iceman Lucida Grande font is well but no smooth as Type1. The LucidaGrande type1 that I download duckie site is very light, no read well, very thin...

Remember, use "Adobe Type Manager" for install it.

It's only beta. More surprise soon...

Enjoy ;)

It looks good. Though there are some things I have noticed about it. Some of the fonts look different sizes compared to each other. Depending on how big the font is set to I guess. With some words it almost looks like mixed case.

Example A: properties.gif

Example B: interweb.gif

Also, not sure what can be done about this but. When I try to set my icon font to this it only gives me 24 as a size choice in the control panel. And if I type any other number it ignores it and uses 24.

I know this problem and I work it. I don't find the solution yet.

Type other number and click ok. Appear 24 but use the number that you type. :)

I do it and use LucidaMAC as icon font in my finder:

All Type1 font I use have this problem, only appear one number size... Why? I don't know... :huh:

Remember, it's only beta :lol:

Oh, it works in my skins. And I already had it working. But when I try to set it to my desktop font it ignores the number and just uses 24.

I've noticed the jumbled (some bigger than other) look also happens if you use certain numbers (I guess odd numbers). The other way though it still happens a tiny bit.

But either way I like this font I'm going to be using it now, thanks.

If you go to my site and click on my current screenshot you can see me using it.

Thank and enjoy ! ;)

Something interesting. If I click on on changing the desktop icon font to lucidamac it doesn't stick. But, if I type in the number and hit enter it does.

Nice font, but it looks a bit blurry. Would be great if you can improve the font! :)

Best regards,
