@sheepysheep60 Windows and OS X have different fallbacks. If you’re only setting a fallback to let’s say, Arial, OS X won’t have that. You would need to set it to Helvetica.
body {
font: normal 300 15px “Custom Webfont”, Helvetica, Arial;
}
I usually put Helvetica first for fallback in case the webfont fails and users on Windows have it installed as it will look the same on both platforms.
