Bold or normal >From CSS 2.1 15.6 Font boldness, I would have expected bold i.e. : Normal weight -> 100,200,300,400,500 Bold weight -> 600,700,800,900 Assuming a's font-weight is 400 then : b -> 700 c -> 800 d -> 700 Note that I am not necessarily saying this is the right way to do it or my own preference. But this is how I understand the specification's prose in this case.
