Overview
Cambria has been designed for on-screen reading and to look good when printed at small sizes. It has very even spacing and proportions. Diagonal and vertical hairlines and serifs are relatively strong, while horizontal serifs are small and intend to emphasize stroke endings rather than stand out themselves. This principle is most noticeable in the italics where the lowercase characters are subdued in style to be at their best as elements of word-images. When Cambria is used for captions at sizes over 20 point, the inter-character spacing should be slightly reduced for best results. The design isn't just intended for business documents: The regular weight has been extended with a large set of math and science symbols. The Greek and Cyrillic has been designed under close supervision of an international team of experts, who aimed to set a historical new standard in multi-script type design.

Cambria Math
If you open Microsoft formatted documents on your Mac like I do then you have probably run across the annoying message saying the Calibri or Cambria font is missing.
For years I have ignored this as an annoyance, but today I decided to do something about it. Turns out there is a very easy fix!
Richard Taylor of RMTWeb became fed up like me and put together a package of fonts to restore Calibri and Cambria fonts on the Mac.
Getting the fonts running is trivial:
Cambria Math Font Download Mac
- Download Richard’s font package from http://www.rmtweb.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Calibri-and-Cambria-Fonts.zip
- Open the zip
- (Here is where I differ from his notes)
- Open the Font Book app
- Select all the fonts from the download and drag them to Font Book
- Click the select all checkbox and the install button
- Celebrate!
That’s it.
Really.
You will no longer get that annoying message about missing fonts!
Thanks to Richard for providing this resource! His original instructions can be found at https://www.rmtweb.co.uk/calibri-and-cambria-fonts-for-mac
Cambria Font Free
Bonus: Segoe UI Font
After posting the original fonts I ran across an issue with Segoe UI fonts missing. Microsoft provides a download for them at Segoe UI and Fabric MDL2 external icon font. The install instructions are the same as above!
