San Francisco is one of the original bitmap typefaces for the Apple Macintosh computer released in 1984. It was designed by Susan Kare to mimic the ransom-note effect and was used in early Mac software demos and Apple company fliers.[1] An official TrueType version was never made, and San Francisco was rendered obsolete with the arrival of System 7.
