Comic Sans Pro (2011) Ĭomic Sans Pro is an improved version of the Comic Sans font created by Terrance Weinzierl from Monotype Imaging. Ĭomic Sans is pre-installed in macOS and Windows Phone but not Android, iOS or Linux. Microsoft has reportedly claimed to retain in its collection the original Mac computer on which Comic Sans was created, but Connare has said that this is not correct as the computer in Microsoft's collection was his older personal computer. The font is also used in Microsoft Comic Chat, which was released in 1996 with Internet Explorer 3.0. Finally, the font became one of the default fonts for Microsoft Publisher and Microsoft Internet Explorer. It was later included as a system font for the OEM versions of Windows 95. The typeface later shipped with the Windows 95 Plus! Pack. The speech bubbles were eventually phased out and replaced by actual sound, but Comic Sans stayed for the program's pop-up windows and help sections.

He completed the typeface too late for inclusion in Microsoft Bob, and the font would go unreleased until the programmers of Microsoft 3D Movie Maker, which also used cartoon guides and speech bubbles, adopted it. In order to make Microsoft Bob look more suitable for its intended purposes, he decided to create a new font with only a mouse and cursor, based on the lettering style of comic books he had in his office, specifically The Dark Knight Returns (lettered by John Costanza) and Watchmen (lettered by Dave Gibbons). He believed this was inappropriate for the aesthetics of the program, which was created to introduce younger users to computers. When he saw a beta version of Microsoft Bob that used Times New Roman in the word balloons of its cartoon characters, he believed the font gave the software an overly formal appearance.
Microsoft designer Vincent Connare began working on Comic Sans in 1994 after having already created other fonts for various applications. Vincent Connare explaining in 2009 how he came to create "the world's favourite font" Development and release
