Fallback Font - Apple's Last Resort Font

Apple's Last Resort Font

Apple's Last Resort Font is a Mac OS system font that is identical to the Unicode Last Resort Font (which was created for the Unicode consortium by Apple).

Apple's Last Resort font was first included in Mac OS 8.5 in 1998, for the benefit of applications using Apple Type Services for Unicode Imaging (ATSUI). It is also used in Mac OS X. In 2001, for the second release of OS X, the Last Resort font design was revised to include the border text and was re-digitized, and extended by Michael Everson of Evertype, who continues to update it with each new release of Unicode.

Famous quotes containing the words apple, resort and/or font:

    I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys. As a lily among brambles, so is my love among maidens. As an apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among young men. With great delight I sat in his shadow, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.
    Bible: Hebrew, Song of Solomon 2:1-3.

    Dylan is to me the perfect symbol of the anti-artist in our society. He is against everything—the last resort of someone who doesn’t really want to change the world.... Dylan’s songs accept the world as it is.
    Ewan MacColl (1915–1989)

    Le corps, l’amour, la mort, ces trois ne font qu’un.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
