Be bolder with bold #162

Closed bsvensson closed 9 years ago

bsvensson commented 9 years ago

I don't see a visual difference between bold and normal text. Normal text is font-weight: 300 and bold is font-weight: 400. Can we maybe increase the difference? Or does the Avenir font only support 400 and 700...?

Example (Chrome on Windows 7) - where "Since:" is (supposedly) bold: image

Maybe related to #151...

@bsvensson I think you are not getting the proper font files from fonts.com. The current 300/400 relationship is little better than what you're showing here, but I agree they are too close. I will move to 300/500.

Fonts.com has a whitelist of allowed domains, which include .arcgis.com, .esri.com, and localhost.
