Hello,

I am wondering why any light font face is not supported in Apple Safari.

I have tried several techniques in CSS without any success.

"Helvetica Neue Light" and "Gill Sans Light" will not be displayed
in Apple Safari.

e.g.
http://www.pixel-templates.com/fr_slide/slogans/01/index.html

"Helvetica Neue Light" and "Gills Sans Light" are only supported
by Mozilla Firefox 2.x as far as I have noticed.

I have made a clean Mac OS X 10.5.5 installation the past week-end
and it still doesn't work in Apple Safari. Any idea?

graphically & sincerely,

Marc Klein

I mean, what are the nice system font faces for if I can't use them for making fancy web pages?
