If you are working for Microsoft surely you can get the font from them? Anyway, it is in the beta versions of Office 12 and Vista or you can search the web for a dodgy version like everyone else.

“Based on ClearType principles” indeed.

The Segoe UI font that Microsoft wants to set as their new UI default font has been found by the office of the European Commission responsible for public design registration (read “trademark”) to be a plagiarized version of Frutiger Next sold by Linotype.

Interesting that no designers picked up on this. It is a clear infringement. See for yourself at http://oami.eu.int/PDF/design/invaldec/ICD%20000000743%20decision%20(EN).pdf

It’s pronounced See-go. It’s named after a street, Segoe Road, in Madison, WI. One of my cats is named Segoe, and he was also named after the street.

Ladislas Segoe was a famous city planner. He did some work in Madison in the 1930s I believe.

[...] You may remember a recent post here about the new Vista font, Segoe UI, which is based on ClearType principles (see illustration). There’s no doubt that this font will help computer users prone to eyestrain. You couldn’t ask for a clearer face. [...]
