Hello,

I’m using this theme and found out that Catch Box doesn’t look the same on Firefox and Chrome.

On Chrome, ALL THE TEXTS ARE BOLD (even in the demo), in Firefox, it’s fine.

Can you correct this ? It’s ugly to have BOLD TEXTS everywhere while using Chrome.

PS : I’m using the last version of Chrome.

Hi @spespam,

I tested the demo site on both the browsers (firefox and chrome both latest) and both are working fine, no bold text issue. Is this the only site is displaying bold text or other sites too? Please let me know. May be the problem with your browser.

Yes, it does that on all websites using Catch Box. I don’t understand why because I’m using the latest version of Google Chrome too (version Version 48.0.2564.109 m).

To test other sites, I just typed “powered by catch box” and I visited the sites and it’s all bold.

I searched on other forums, and it could be because I have the font helvetica bold installed on my PC.

Could you try to install the helvetica bold font to see if you have the same results ?

If that’s the reason why, it’s strange because this bug doesn’t happen with other themes that I tried.

Hi @spespan,

It seems it to be the system’s font issue. Have you tried it with other system (without helvetica bold font installed). The theme uses these fonts(“Helvetica Neue”,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif) in sequence. If one is not found it will fall back to next and if none of the fonts found, it falls back to sans-serif. In your system as you’ve installed Helvetica bold, the theme will use Helvetica bold font by default. If you check other sites with Helvetica font it will display the same font(bold). Either you have install Helvetica regular font or remove Helvetica bold font, and the default font falls back to Arial.

How can I change the default font to arial ONLY ? I don’t want people who have helvetica bold installed on their computer to view the site like me, it’s really ugly so I’d like to use arial only as the default font for everybody.
Is there a way to do this ?

Hi spespam,

This can be done with Custom CSS. Go to “Dashboard=> Appearance=> Theme Options=> Custom CSS” box and add the following CSS.

body, input, textarea {
    font-family: Arial;
}
