[edit] Gone in Vista?

Is the original raster version of MS Sans Serif gone in Vista? I don't have a copy of Vista to check... --Nyletak ♥

[edit] Font preview

Not unsurprisingly, the font preview displays on my computer (Firefox 2 on Ubuntu Gutsy) as Bitstream Vera Serif. I imagine the MS Sans Serif preview will only work on Windows, and the other one will additionally work on Leopard, but nothing else. I've added a technical note (in a {{selfref}} tag) to this effect, but what's really needed is an image illustrating it. Hairy Dude (talk) 23:38, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Helvetica

Should it be pointed out that the font is extremely similar to Helvetica (much more so than Arial), and the former name of "Helv" makes it even more obvious that this is the case? Avatar-X (talk) 03:36, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
