===Palatino Linotype===
Palatino Linotype is the version of the Palatino family included with modern versions of Microsoft software. It incorporates extended Latin, Greek, Cyrillic characters, as well as currency signs, subscripts and superscripts, and fractions. The family includes roman and italic in text and bold weights.

Palatino Linotype was notable as being the first western [[OpenType]] font that Microsoft shipped; Palatino Linotype was bundled with [[Windows 2000]]. The OpenType version showcased some (then new) alternate features, including [[Typographic ligature|ligatures]], true [[small caps]], [[Typeface#Typesetting numbers|proportional and tabular figures]], [[text figures]] and a variety of special alternate characters, such as the swash Capital Qu combination.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://blogs.msdn.com/b/fontblog/archive/2007/06/11/a-blast-from-type-past.aspx|title=A blast from type past!|publisher=Microsoft}}</ref> This marks it out from earlier digitisations such as the [[OS X]] system version, which do not include ligatures such as ''Th'' and ''Qu''. On release it was one of the few fonts to incorporate an [[interrobang]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://blogs.msdn.com/b/fontblog/archive/2005/12/22/interrobang-interrobang.aspx|title=MSDN Blogs|publisher=Microsoft}}</ref>
