The Segoe UI font is not built into a browser. It is shipped with some Microsoft software. On a Mac, it is most probably not available, though a user might have acquired it separately or as part of some software package.
You should remove the @font-face rule and the font files uploaded onto a server. Segoe UI is protected by copyright, and it must not be used as a web font without permission from the copyright holder, Microsoft (which probably won’t give a permission). You will need some other strategy, such as using another font either as the basic font or as a fallback font for visitors who don’t have Segoe UI in their systems. The Open Sans is rather similar to Segoe UI, and it’s free (and it comes in 10 styles, including Book, Normal, Semi-Bold, Bold, and Extra-Bold weight).
The official Microsoft branding typeface, is a beautiful and elegant font. It’s used in almost every campaign ranging from posters to logos, most notably. And for that reason, it’s not a font you can exactly download from any fonts website. However, if you do happen to have it through one way or another, you will cherish it.
It works great as a substitute, and even looks extremely sharp even in small font sizes due to the enhancements. And there’s no better if you need to create a fake Microsoft logo.

To note, this is not just Segoe UI which comes with Vista or Office 2007. Segoe UI is just one of the many subsets in the Segoe family which make up the collection. This is that collection.
Out of pure luck, Microsoft has actually let such a prized possession slip out of its internal archives and onto the public internet. A few weeks ago, Microsoft silently uploaded an ambiguous downloadable titled ““. It would have sounded pretty innocent to the normal Microsoft.com user, but it was highly contagious for a sleuth like myself.
And I was right, there it was in its full-fidelity and form, all 14 font files that make up the Segoe family. But that’s not all. Apart from all possible combinations of condensed, semibold and light type variations, there are also versions and believe it or not, Mac versions. And to top it off, it also comes with the much adored license agreement spelled “licnese.txt”.
In which it states, Microsoft grants you a personal, nonexclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to install and use the Software solely for the purpose of creating materials requested by Microsoft and in accordance with the specification(s) provide to you by Microsoft. By way of example only, such materials may include printed material (such as advertising, packaging, promotional material, and manuals), form material (such as templates and style sheets), online graphic material (such as bitmapped text, bitmapped logos and Macromedia Flash animations), and broadcast material (such as television advertising). You may install and use the Software on an unlimited number of computers as long as all such computers are either owned or controlled by you. NO RENTAL/TRANSFER. You may not rent, lease, lend, or otherwise transfer the Software. A rather straight-forward and lenient EULA by any legal standards. I’ll leave you to interpret what “creating materials requested by Microsoft” means.
But since I cannot transfer you the “software” in a direct manner, you will have to that the Segoe fonts are wedged between. Once you have extracted the ZIP, you can find the TrueType fonts in the “ BDMQ107LeadGenAD High Resolution Fonts WindowsFonts SegoePC SegoeTTPC” directory. Copy and install the fonts and you’re all set. Don’t ask me how I found this, just grab it quickly. You never know when the A-Team (Microsoft Legal Council) will blow it out of existence. Update: The A-Team has struck again. They’re no fun.
To all you sad people that so desperately want that Segoe font simply go out and buy Frutiger from Linotype. You’ll find Segoe looks almost identical to Frutiger sans a few minor details. Not sure why they are similar. Perhaps Microsoft didn’t want to pay the license fee for Frutiger and simply copied it.
You bee the judge. FYI, Segoe (not Segoe UI which ships with Vista) is owned by Microsoft (or Linotype if you ask Linotype’s lawyers) and therefore can not be used or distributed without prior written permission by Microsoft. Since this is their corporate font I doubt they will really allow for this to be used in any other way than producing collateral for Microsoft.

Having gone through the entire thread of messages, there was obviously some serious confusion over the Segoe fonts. I originally went looking for “Segoe Print”, which is a nice script style font, but people here starting comparing it to Frutiger, which is more like Gill Sans. I then discovered there are two different types of Segoe and that the regular Segoe font family.does. look alot like Frutiger. Ivanildo Filho (about 17 messages up), you had the link I was looking for, and I thank you very much!! I’ve copied it here for convenience. This is all very old now, but that license is not a straightforward lenient EULA.
The words “use the Software solely for the purpose of creating materials requested by Microsoft and in accordance with the specification(s) provide to you by Microsoft” are actually quite clear in their meaning, and they say that you can only use this for doing stuff that Microsoft commissioned you to do. Not that anyone sharing these fonts on the internet cares whether they have a license to do it or not. But it’s worth being clear: contrary to the text in this article, that particular license does not give you permission to use the fonts for whatever you like.
