    The CSS for that page lists Lucida Grande as the default/preferred font.

    thanks!

    Thanks for your response!

    I created a text with Lucida Grande and it just doesn't look that great as in the wordpress page.

    I don´t know what I'm missing

    Well, thanks a lot for the quick response :D!

    The text is Lucida Grande an easy way I use to find out is just copy a chunk of the text into Word. As the formatting is maintained. Then you can see the font very easily.

    Great tip!

    That's a great and easy tip :D!
    I assume it also works with pages..

    And my Lucida Grande created text does not looked good because of the way fireworks renders text, when I clicked on "preview in Safari" on fireworks the text doesn't look very good, so I tried with Flash and clicked on "preview in browser" and the text look great!

    Thanks so much for your help :D!
