Safari Font Rendering Issues

Safari font rendering issues

Safari has an issue with fonts. The easiest fix for the duplicate text issue is clarifying the font-weight:

font-weight: 400;

Using Lucho's Javascript's text stroke solution along with specifying font-weight will make your text the same as it is on Chrome.

OSX Safari VS Chrome font rendering difference

Two possibilities at first glance:

  1. The otf format is not supported by Safari
  2. There's no bold or 700 version of font Brandon provided, browsers try to mimic the bold version, which may vary in the rendering result. You may try to disable it by adding font-synthesis: none to text or providing the bold version of your font.

Font rendering issue on iOS 10 safari (mobile)

Found a workaround, I just re-download the .otf font and convert it to .woff again and it worked. Seems like the old .woff font has some compatibility issue and broken in iOS 10.
