    Hello,

    I have come across an unusual issues whilst using customiser. When I edit the typography settings and see how it looks in the customiser view it looks exactly how I would like it to. However, once I leave customiser and view the site normally the font weight has increased.

    I have tried using my inspection tool and changing the font weight there, and I can change it, but only making the font weight heavier. I can not get it to go lighter so it is same as in the customiser view, but ideally I would not want to have to edit the CSS for all the different font variables to fix the issue anyway.

    Here are the screenshots:

    How it looks in Customiser (and how I would like it look)

    How it actually looks when viewing the site:

    Hey Daniel,

    In that case, please give us access to your WordPress admin so we could investigate.

    Thanks.

    Hi Dan,

    To fix the font issue, can you try adding the code below in custom > css in the customizer.

    
    @import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Josefin+Sans:100,300,400,600,700,100italic,300italic,400italic,600italic,700italic);
    

    Hope that helps.

    Thank you for this,

    I think I found the cause of the issue whilst researching something else as I noticed it started doing it on other WordPress websites.

    It looks like it is an issue with Google fonts and font smoothing and antialiasing. I think the way to fix the issue is to add something like this with css:

    .font-smoothing {
        -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
        -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
    }

    I am not sure exactly where to add this yet. Perhaps you might know?

    Is this something that could be added to X-Theme? To prevent this kind of issue. I have fixed it temporarily on my own computer by adding a custom stylesheet to my Safari browser, but obviously the issue would still be present on other computers.

    Thank you for the great support as usual and the fantastic theme. I have 3 purchase already and more to come I am sure.

    I also wanted to ask if you guys have a “suggestions box” of sorts where people can make suggestions for things they would like included in the theme.

    Thank you,

    Dan

    Hi Dan,

    You can add it under Custom > CSS in the Customizer.

    
    body,
    h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, .h1, .h2, .h3, .h4, .h5, .h6 {
        -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
        -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
    }
    

    I have forwarded your concern to our web development team. This might be a font specific problem as we are not able to replicate this issue on our demo sites.

    With regards to suggestion box, you can always post your suggestions in the forum.

    Thank you.

    I’m having the exact same issue using LATO font. The text settings are identical across the entire site, except for two fields which continue to load on the site in BOLD despite cornerstone displaying it in the BOOK setting that is selected in the customizer.

    Hello, I am also having trouble using the Lato font. It appears that the font-weight increases in the live version vs what I see in Cornerstone. It is consistent with every element on the site which is a one-page.

    my page URL is
