Exact style for NSMenuItem?

i'm trying nsmenuitem have exact same font/style default ones, i'm having troubles.

here's code:

code:

nsdictionary *attributedictionary = [nsdictionary dictionarywithobjectsandkeys:[nsfont fontwithname:@"lucidagrande" size:13.0], nsfontattributename, nil]; statusitem.attributedtitle = [[nsattributedstring alloc] initwithstring:[nsstring stringwithformat:@" mon feb 6"] attributes:attributedictionary];

i've attached output below. on far left menu item. on far right built in date / time menu item i'm trying copy.

it's close, not quite right. it's told proper font, looks me proper font several os versions ago (10.4?) looks little sharp... should taller , wider. making next size makes tall. making bold... actually, haven't figured out how bold (i've tried adding "-bold" end of name of font, seems result in getting unrelated font show up...)

edit: adding shadow offset of 0.5, 0.5 seems little promising... doesn't quite right, though...

i played around few ideas, , seems best results. seems turning off cgcontextsetshouldsmoothfonts() makes better.

code:
