The solution, provide by Max from TXS:
Chrome/Windows does not support the font-weight property correctly.
THEORETICALLY
font-weight: 700; = font-weight: bold;
but in Chrome/Windows
font-weight: 600; renders wider/bolder -- it's like font-weight 1000 or more...
although font-weight: bold; is supposed to be the equivalent of '700', in Chrome/Windows it's not.
Chrome bug.
Chrome/Windows has font/css rendering issues... many reports out there...
I can verify that Chrome in WInXP, WIn7 and Win8 all have this font-weight rendering issue. Chrome/mac does not.
using font-weight: bold; instead of font-weight:600; solved the problem.
bad Chrome!
Thanks to Max for solving this!
Just sharing.
thanks!
