    Hi,
    I am having a problem with rendering lightweight fonts on Internet Explorer, it seems to be ignoring the weight on IE. They show OK on Chrome & Firefox. Is there any way to fix this? Comparison screenshots attached.

    Hi!

    I think this a font IE compatibility issue, check if you reproduce the same here:

    Thanks for the quick response.
    It looks OK in the link you posted. Looks very similar in both Chrome & IE. What is different on this page and where to go from here?

    Thanks
    Alan.

    Hi Josue,
    I must apologise as I feel I have wasted your time. It seems my browser was in compatibility view. I tried this when I couldn’t get the fonts to render properly, but it was a different problem causing it in the first place, which I fixed and then must have forgot to turn off compatibility view.
    Thanks again for looking into this, through process of elimination you helped me fix it anyway.
    Alan.
