You could also set the fontWeight to 'normal' for components if u don't want to
embed whole new font family:
i.e
ComboBox {
fontFamily: myArial;
fontSize: 20;
fontWeight: "normal";
}

Now that's what I call a "gotcha" :)
Ladies and gentlemen, this is why we can't fork the list without Adobe's

Combobox (and Button and a few others) use bold fontWeight. You have to embed
the bold version of the font as well. I believe it looks something like:
@font-face{
src: url("assets/ARIALBD.TTF"); /* copy from Windows/fonts/
folder */
fontFamily: myArial;
fontWeight: bold;
}
