Syntehtic 'Bold' style when using FontDeck font…

[Tor Slotmann]

Hi there,

Thanks for an awesome theme : )

I’ve tried out some of the FontDeck fonts and want to avoid the synthetic Bold styles applied to <strong> emphasized text – how can I get a true Bold style when using <strong> style on my subheadings?
Heres the fonts I choose in FontDeck for standard font option in Flexform:

div { font-family:”Proxima Nova Alt Bold”, sans-serif; font-weight:bold; font-style:normal; }
div { font-family:”Proxima Nova Alt Regular”, sans-serif; font-weight:normal; font-style:normal; }
BR,
Tor

Hi Tor,

Faux bold or True Bold depends on how that font was created; in any website, you can only use font-weight in CSS to specify the font weight.

Note that font-weight doesn’t only come with ‘normal’ or ‘bold’, there are also values that you can use if a font was created to use them, like 100, 300, 500 etc

Regards,
