		72deluxe on Nov 19, 2014 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: San Francisco system font replacement for Yosemite Does anyone here have a "low res" (like 1440x900) MacBook? I do - it's from 2012 and was the last to have a CD drive so that I could write CDs for bandmates, plus it has a dedicated Ethernet port instead of a mass of external adapters (useful for AVB testing). Anyway, since Yosemite the font for the menu bar has been a bit "bitty" and not smooth which contrasts sharply with the rest of the shininess seen everywhere - does this resolve this? I thought I'd ask before taking the plunge.

2010 model (1280x800) here and the menu bar / general font looks fine for me.

Here's the bar for me: http://i.imgur.com/oKnD674.png

I just installed it on my Air, and it seems a lot smoother than Helvetica ever was. YMMV though
