Chris Foresman over at ArsTechnica comments on the upcoming font changes to OS X Snow Leopard. Among the many under-the-hood changes to OS X are the removal of Strong and Light anti-alias font Display settings. Medium will be the only option. And much to the delight of many designers, Apple is apparently getting rid of their proprietary dfont format. Taking its place will be a number of fonts in the TrueType Collection (.ttc) format. How font management applications like Suitcase Fusion will support this remains to be seen – however the .ttc format has been supported by the Mac OS since 8.5, according to Ars.

The Loop: New Mac Blog on the Web
Having spent the last 15+ years as a Mac-fanatic, one of the original editors at MacCentral, and more recently an editor at Macworld, Jim Dalrymple is no stranger to the Mac Web. 
The Loop is Jim’s latest Web venture. The site offers commentary on the latest news about Apple, product reviews and more. I’ve known Jim (in an online sense) for many years. He’s a great writer, and I’m sure the site will quickly become one of my favorite daily visits. The site is just getting off the ground, and I wish him the best of luck! When you have some time, give The Loop a quick visit.
