Courier, a monospaced font, also remained. Many of the classic Macintosh typefaces included with previous versions remained available, including the serif typefaces New York, Palatino, and Times, the sans-serif Charcoal and Chicago, Monaco, Geneva and Helvetica. It also supports sophisticated font techniques, such as ligatures and filtering. MacOS includes Roman, Japanese and Chinese fonts. MacOS ships with multiple typefaces, for multiple scripts, licensed from several sources. Lucida Grande is almost identical in appearance to the prevalent Windows font Lucida Sans, and contains a larger variety of glyphs. For labels and other small text, 10 pt Lucida Grande was typically used.
OS X Yosemite used Helvetica Neue, and preceding versions largely employed Lucida Grande. The primary system font in OS X El Capitan and above is San Francisco. See also: List of macOS fonts System fonts
