 * Dear Radiate Support Team:
 * I just started using the Radiate theme and I am making strides in tweaking it
   to look the way I would like. The default text appears very light. Is there any
   way to darken it so that the contrast is greater? At one time, I thought there
   was a section to edit the Theme Font, but I can’t seem to locate it at this point.
 * Thank you for you consideration – J. Ross

 * Thank you for your assistance.
 * This is a good example of the font about which I wrote:

 * It seems as though it is a medium grey color and I fear it may be difficult for
   some viewers to read.

 * Hi jbross,
 * Thanks for the link. Here is the code snippet for making the text darken
 *     ```
       p {
          font-weight: 500;
       }
       ```

 * Chhabi:
 * Thank you for the information. I am not a CSS or HTML expert, but I have done
   some coding in the past. Can you tell me in which file and where in that file
   the code must be placed? Thank you very much for you time and interest.
