I've read this , but didn't actually provide a solution, and the issue was reversed from my problem.

So I'm using Roboto Slab with 400 weight, 1em size, which renders nicely on Windows but incredibly thick on OS X.

I only realised this when I bought a MacBook Air.

Is there a way I can reduce the weight if a user is viewing on OS X? Or something like em (vs px) for weight?

The accepted answer for this question should help you out. Quite a bit of extra work for just the font weight, but if nothing else works for you it might be worth a try: stackoverflow.com/questions/10247648/… – Dryden Long Dec 16, 2013 at 17:41 That site suggests instead using a different tool which not only appears to offer browser detection, not OS detection, but also says not to use it. Huh. – OJFord Dec 16, 2013 at 17:55 The reason it says that is because the writer didn't feel like keeping up with the constant browser/OS updates. Using


    navigator.platform


    navigator.userAgent

can get you the info on what system is being used to view your page. Like I said, probably a lot of work, but if you're hell bent on making it happen, this is the only way I know of... – Dryden Long Dec 16, 2013 at 18:03
