Here is my css (might be easier to see if there is surrounding code causing the issue)

Font weight does not change. They are doubling up the normal font to simulate what you are asking for when there is no actual weight of that type available. I changed the font cdn url. The unavailable weights simply display the logically closest weight.

Web if a weight of exactly 500 is given, then 400 is used. The three weights do have names but aren't specified in the href link so i'm not sure if the name needs to be added. I'm using windows 10 {renamed by mod}

Note that only four font weights are considered for relative weight calculation; } #unsurpassed p { color: Some of the browsers may display 'thicker' or 'thinner' type, but they are tricking you.

Looks like it does support lighter weights Show demo browser support the numbers in the table specify the first browser version that fully supports the property. Web solution 1 its because the font size (9px) is too small to display bold.

Web it's definitely using quicksand on the page but the problem is that when i change the font weight from 400 to 500 it doesn't change. Lighter one relative font weight lighter than the parent element. It could be that the font you’re loading in doesn’t have a weight lighter than 400.
