On the Classic Macintosh envorionment there were several fonts: Geneva, Chicago, Times, Courier... there was also a font called New York, which printed looked pretty classical, and on the screen it had a very coquette, sophisticated forms, that reminds us to the needlepoint style.

With Mac OS X, this font got discontinued. At least until 2019, when it was re-introduced on Apple Books. As the screens were better (the fabulous retina displays), there was no pretty pixelated characters anymore, but a font that was very similar to the printed version of NY font.

With this careful pixel-to-pixel reconstruction of the old New York 12pt font, we can enjoy again the very exquisite taste and the true art that Susan Kare had shown when she crafted this font almost 40 years ago.

I have done the Plain, Bold and Italic fonts. I didn't dared to do the italic bold, and i really don't think anyone shall ever need it.
