Bob replied to my description of the Safari 7 font-rendering problem on JSmol:
========================================================== Certainly very curious. It must be considered a Safari bug that they are not picking up the sans-serif bold, which is required by HTML5 standards. But we can get around it. You can experiment in JSmol. In j2s/core/core.z.js look for "Sans-Serif" and change that to anything you want. I believe "Helvetica Neue, Sans-serif" is sufficient. ========================================================== I did some tests and the best Apple-only typeface I found is Avenir. I need to check it on different devices, but I have a test page with the default Sans-Serif markup in "j2s/core/core.z.js at: http://motif.gla.ac.uk/JSmolTest/sans/index.html and an alternative with "Avenir, Sans-Serif" markup in "j2s/core/core.z.js at: http://motif.gla.ac.uk/JSmolTest/avenir/index.html If it doesn't have any odd side-effects on other platforms I'll incorporate it into Motivated proteins. David ...but I wish I knew why Safari renders the type differently on a simple canvas from on a JSmol canvas. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ New Year.
