A question

If your only interested in Fonts, I seriously recommend you look elsewhere as these will not be suable for any purpose outside of iOS development.

I looks to me like that list is simply the fonts which are part of OS X but not part of iOS. I would think the main purpose of making them downloadable is so that docs produced by OS X apps will not have to substitute some different font when viewed on iOS.

Sorry, I gave you the wrong font list before. For 10.9 it is at

Thanks for the list, yes I had missed those. It's certainly odd that Apple would think these are necessary in addition to the 18 made available with OS X. Also it doesn't look like they are being used by any other OS, so they are not needed for compatibility. A mystery.

And you can't help to extract and send it to my e-mail at least?

There is no way to extract these fonts from anything, unless perhaps you become a developer.

I have doubts whether they will be made part of OS X when there are already 18 sitting there, more than any other non Roman language.

Why would you want them, when you have no idea what they look like and (as far as I can tell) they are not being used anywhere in the world?

these fonts were used in publish software from the past until now.

Interesting! Can you name some examples? I was not able to find any myself....

Perhaps you should contact that company about buying them or the software which has them
