Bold Font is jagged in IE7, fine in others (4 posts)

    Hi, I'm having an issue with bold fonts in IE7 which appear fine in all other browsers but appears extremely aliased/jaggy. The font is Helvetica, Arial, Sans Serif. My theme does not include a separate css file for IE7 and I'm hoping to avoid doing so. Any Ideas? Thanks!

    The site in development is http://www.postpost.co

    Words like "PostPost"? This looked fine in IE7 even blowing up to 200%.

    Really? Not for me, this is a screen shot from IE7 on XP.

    What's interesting is bold helvetica/arial/sans fonts on other sites look fine on the same machine.

    I am running windows 7 and using the ie developer tools to see the site. Also just checked FF5 and Chrome + IE8 and 9 - all fine.

    Check it out on this site (takes awhile). http://browsershots.org
