: Rendering of Raleway (Google Web Fonts) in Google Chrome browser I am using Windows 7 and I have a problem with one of Google Fonts: Raleway. I checked and this font looks very good in Firefox

@Pierce454

This is a known issue with Raleway and some versions of Chrome, it's related to anti-aliasing of fonts. This is a fix for windows, using SVG in the css

/*FIX FONT FOR GOOGLE CHROME ON WINDOWS*/ @media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0) { @font -face {
font-family: 'MyFont';
src: url('fonts/myfont.svg#myfont') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;}
}


This can make things look even worse on a Mac so you can code HTTP headers to change this only for Windows, instructions

This suggestion html { -webkit-text-stroke: 0.25px} from superuser looks promising.

This solution from stackoverflow explains how to get around issues involving locally installed google fonts and chrome rendering.
