One answer can be found at Code Style Font Sampler, which asks visitors to fill out a survey asking them about the fonts they have on their computers. You should take the results with a grain of salt, as the results are biased in favor of users who:

  1. visit the site,
  2. agree to take the survey, &
  3. are able to correctly determine the fonts on their computers

Still, it provides some useful results. Go take a look & it'll give you some numbers you can work with.

Various resources also exist that give web developers some hard numbers & lists they can use when determining the fonts available on various operating systems.

UNIX & Linux

There are hundreds of different UNIX variants out there (Linux itself is one, and there are hundreds of variants of Linux!), so saying with certainty what fonts are safe to assume are on any particular user's UNIX box is difficult. Fortunately, even though there are hundreds of UNIX flavors, there are only a few that make up the majority of desktop use.

Best Free Fonts For Mac

When the iPad came out, it had more fonts on it than did the iPhone. Apple has since rectified that, & it's my guess that it will continue to make sure both devices have the same number of fonts on them.

Android

All Fonts For Adobe Illustrator

Android is a bit more complicated, because while it doesn't include very many built in fonts, apps can bundle whatever fonts they want (note that this is now true for Apple's iOS as of version 4; however, since iOS also comes with over 50 built in fonts, most apps don't need to include their own).

Android versions 1 through 3 (code names: Cupcake, Donut, Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, & Honeycomb) included only 3 fonts:

  • Droid Serif
  • Droid Sans Mono

Starting with version 4 of Android (codenamed Ice Cream Sandwich), Google introduced a new standard font: Roboto. Here are some webpages about Roboto:

Windows Phone 7

Windows Phone 7 out of the box supports 16 fonts, including those in Core Fonts for the Web plus a few others. If you do not specify font-family, Segoe WP is used by default. However, like Android & iOS, developers can embed their own fonts in their apps if they desire.

If you’re looking for my comments on Microsoft’s Core Fonts for the Web (Andalé Mono, Arial, Comic Sans, Courier New, Georgia, Impact, Times New Roman, Trebuchet MS, Verdana, & Webdings) & Microsoft’s ClearType Font Collection (Calibri, Cambria, Candara, Consolas, Constantia, Corbel), see My Thoughts on Fonts.
