Hi Thomas, > Because of this, my conclusion has always been that CSS was > fundamentally broken as far as font selection is concerned. Isn't this an issue that can be solved by font authors and platform developers? If someone makes a new font called "Vulgaris Neue" with several weights and in condensed and expanded versions they should have no problem keeping all these faces within the same family if they so choose. On the other hand, if someone puts every face in a different family, it's not clear why CSS should be responsible for doing the heavy lifting to try and straighten everything out.
