Hello,
does somebody know a similar font (or the same...) for Windows as the
Mac font "Capitals"?

Thanks
Carlos

Is there really a font with that name?
Can you point to a sample somewhere? (Or post an image and/or the font 
itself in alt.binaries.fonts)

Yes, there is: <http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/apple/capitals/>

'Capitals' is one of the fonts that could be chosen as the system font 
in OS 8 and OS 9. It is also distributed with the "classic environment" 
in OS X (the OS 9 emulation within OS X), I guess for backwards 
compatibility.

And, no there is no official PC version.

From MyFonts:

"MyFonts is not yet authorized to sell this font directly.
Apple fonts are only available in Macintosh TrueType format; they are 
not distributed in Windows font formats. Apple fonts can only be 
obtained by purchasing the Macintosh operating system.
Apple fonts are included in the MyFonts database for reference only."

Hope this helps,
Arthur

Why do I never think of just going to a Font site to look for fonts 
instead of googling?

If someone were to post the font in a.b.f. or a.b.m.f (assuming it's not 
just a bitmap font) it's likely that someone else might do a conversion 
to pc format.

It is:
>> Apple fonts are only available in Macintosh TrueType format;

and is OP would post the request in a.b.f or a.b.m.f I'm sure someone 
would rise to the occasion.
