Description
Segoe UI is a humanist sans-serif typeface designed by Steve Matteson during his employment at Agfa Monotype. It was licensed to Microsoft in 2004 as a replacement for Franklin Gothic and Tahoma. The font has been extensively customized for use in various applications and devices, aiming to be user-friendly and legible. Despite a dispute over similarities with the Frutiger family of typefaces, Segoe UI remains a popular choice for Microsoft's online and printed marketing materials, including its corporate logo. The font comes in a range of weights and italics.
