Font rendering - IE11
3 replies · Started by Ramesh Srinivasan on April 9, 2016
Hi,
I noticed the fonts are little bit bolder but not so sharp when the page is viewed in IE11/Windows 10. (Chrome displays is fine.)
I'm using GP Premium.. and I pretty much use the default settings... may be except the font size I may have reduced it a notch or so.
Uploaded the screenshot here showing the side by side comparison.. IE vs Chrome (on the right):

And the URL to test:

It's not a major issue, just wanted to know why IE11 shows it differently. I tested with other sites, where they appear fine.. identical in both IE and Chrome.
TIA

Hi there,
It could just be the way IE11 is rendering that specific Google Font.
GP Premium doesn't do anything special, it just adds the Google Font to your site and applies it to the next.
I did a quick search and didn't see anything come up re IE11 and Google Fonts.
Hi Tom,
Yes. It's not GP for sure, but the font or the particular font size. IE and Edge both render the font that way.
Thanks for the response.. the ticket can be closed.

No problem, IE is a pain, seems it always will be.
