    What is the CSS the theme uses for that particular font style?

    i hope you are talking about this..

    /* General Styling */

    @font-face {
    font-family: 'BonvenoCF-Light';
    src: url('images/fonts/BonvenoCF-Light.otf') format('opentype');
    }
    h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    font-family: 'BonvenoCF-Light', Arial;
    font-weight: normal;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0 0 10px 0;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    }
    h1 {
    font-size: 20pt;
    line-height: 20pt;
    font-weight: bold;
    }...

    You may want to try using a different font family style... maybe one more common through all browsers.

    Something like this...

    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

    Honestly, I have no idea. I would remove it all-together. But that's just me :)

    Paste it in a notepad file until you are sure it's not needed, just to be safe.

    This is the CSS those headings are pulling from:

    a, h1 a, h2 a, h3 a, h4 a, h5 a, h6 a, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, #searchsubmit, input[type="submit"], input[type="reset"], cite, a.tab-active, #nav .cat-item a, #nav .page_item a, .pop_inner_title {
        color: #006EA2;
        font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
    }

    So, either find that line in your CSS file, or if you have the option to add it to custom CSS via your theme.

    Sorry.

    It is on line 28 of your wp-content/themes/magnifizine/style.php file.

    Here is the original code:

    a, h1 a, h2 a, h3 a, h4 a, h5 a, h6 a, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, #searchsubmit, input[type="submit"], input[type="reset"], cite, a.tab-active, #nav .cat-item a, #nav .page_item a, .pop_inner_title {
        color: #006EA2;
    }

    So you just need to add:

    font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;

    to it so it looks like what I posted above.

    Try the example above first to make sure it is compatible across all browsers, then you can tweak it as you like.
