List of typefaces included with macOS
![]() | This article needs to be updated.(September 2021) |
This list of fonts contains every font shipped with Mac OS X 10.0 through macOS 10.14, including any that shipped with language-specific updates from Apple (primarily Korean and Chinese fonts). For fonts shipped only with Mac OS X 10.5, please see Apple's documentation.
Notes on subtype classification:
- Some scripts have typographical traditions with relatively simple mapping to Western sans-serif/serif/script classification. These mapped classifications are provided too. More specifically:
- For Cyrillic and Greek, classification proceeds as in Latin.
- For CJK, East Asian Gothic typefaces are classified as sans-serif, Ming/Song/Batang and Fangsong as serif, and handwritten styles such as Kai as "script".
- Non-Latin fonts generally contain both characters in the intended script and a small set of Latin characters. The two parts may differ in style and classification, hence the "with sans/sans-serif Latin part" indication.
System fonts up to Mac OS X 10.7

Font appearances
[edit]- These images compare Roman fonts only, in most styles:
- The fonts in the following list were included as "extras" with AppleWorks 6,[2] which was bundled with new iMacs until 2006.[3]
Hidden fonts
[edit]A large number of fonts have also been provided with iMovie, iLife, iDVD and other Apple applications in hidden folders, for the sole use of these applications. The reason why these fonts are hidden is unknown, with licensing issues suggested as the cause. However, one may easily install them for use by all applications by copying them out of their Library directories and installing them as with any third-party font, although one should always check that the license for the fonts allows them to be used outside the given software.[4]
Examples of notable hidden fonts on macOS are Bank Gothic, Bodoni, Century Gothic, Century Schoolbook, Garamond, several cuts of Lucida, Superclarendon and Monotype Twentieth Century.
