But I don't see why looking at the Typekit site in the same browsers on the same machine gives a different result than looking at the website. -- Debbie __ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

Here's what I'm seeing - both samples bold, both screenshots from Chrome on Win7. Even at a slightly smaller size the a's in the Typekit sample are much cleaner. http://www.oilfield-construction.com/NEW_SWD/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/fonts.jpg -- Debbie __ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

Sorry for so many responses, but I found the problem - I tried switching to the Google Fonts version of Open Sans and all is now fine. The font kit I got from FontSquirrel was the issue. -- Debbie __ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
