@laurakalbag Weight. -
@aral varies from browser to browser (though that’s a whole different problem) -
@laurakalbag@aral don't mean to wade in, but couldn't you use webKit-font-smoothing for OSX rendering? http://maxvoltar.com/sandbox/fontsmoothing/ … -
@karlgoldstraw@laurakalbag You can. I find the results unacceptable.

@aral +1 for -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased solves that issue completely but some prefer the heavier look -

@GarthDB Are you guys manually hinting some of your fonts for subpixel antialiasing? If so, is there a list somewhere of which ones? -
@aral actually we are now switching to grayscale antialiasing because of a WebKit CSS transition bug; it flickers. https://github.com/adobe/brackets/pull/2665 …

@aral IMO, web fonts for body text are a bad idea in general. Adds unnecessary delay to core content.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
