"What a delightful holiday treat! Today, four more Adobe typefaces have been added to Typekit’s library: Carol Twombly’s Adobe Caslon Pro, and Robert Slimbach’s Adobe Jenson Pro, Arno Pro, and Warnock Pro are traditionally-inspired, serifed designs that have each been updated to work well on the web."
— More classic Adobe fonts on Typekit « The Typekit Blog: Effective immediately, I have switched the text here from the wonderful Adobe Text Pro to the amazing Arno Pro. Subtle differences, but I love the handcut feel of Arno.
"
The only problem with these new Vista typefaces is that they’re only distributed with Vista. So, I have two simple requests:
- Microsoft, please distribute these new Vista typefaces for older versions of Windows, especially XP. Perhaps include them with the release of Internet Explorer 7 and future Office updates?
- Apple, please license this set of fonts from Microsoft and include them with Mac OS X.
Making good on these two simple requests would go an incredibly long way towards improving the state of typography on the web — and should cost each company next to nothing."
— JeffCroft.com: An open letter to Apple and Microsoft - This letter is three and a half years old now, but it’s never too late to stop hoping Microsoft and Apple will arrange an agreement to provide Microsoft’s ClearType Font Collection to OS X users for free (similar to the Core fonts for the Web).
