I think it's very close to Sylfaen by Microsoft. I can't see character differences in the letters. The weight is about the same too.

"Sylfaen only in a single weight and style: no italic, no bold, etc. This is because it was originally made for a research project, and not intended to be shipped." John Hudson.

Noting the above I tried opening WordPad on the PC running Windows XP SP2 that I am using, just in case Sylfaen had been bundled with the system.

Yes, it had!

I opened the font in FontCreator and found that the font has a good selection of glyphs. I noticed in particular the accented characters needed for Esperanto and also I noticed a Greek alphabet.

I found the following pages in the Microsoft web space.
