If I'm using "RobotoBold" - custom font - in my stack on an<h2> for

it "double-bolds" the font. But if the user sees a fallback font of
Helvetica or Arial, they won't get it in a bold weight. Is there
anything that can be done about this that I'm not seeing? Can only the
fall backs be bold?
I'm not sure I understand. Care to put an example ?
@fontface {
font-family: RobotoBold;
src: url(RobotoBold.woff);
font-weight: bold;
}
h2 { font-family: RobotoBold, Helvetica, Comic Sans; font-weight: bold; }
with that there should not be any artificial bolding. Browser will (should)
treat that font as being a bold face.

One other thing. After thinking about this, WHY doesnt this still
double-bold the custom font? Just a function of @font-face?
It should not double-bold if your code is ok... can you provide a link
to your page?
