In Mac OS this font renders like this:

Firefox, Mac OS 10.9

In this web site dafont.com and in windows OS it shows like that:

what is it ? a jpg ? png ? gif ? a web rendering with @font-face ?
please be clear, it's not that difficult (!!)

Hello, it is a web rendering with @font-face. But If i want to look just this font in font book (like in windows Fonts folder.) it shows the same. Bu I mentioned dafont.com is rendering with some php script and it shows fine...

yeah, on dafont it's a png image.
you're comparing 2 totally different things

Yes but I wanted to show how it looks different in mac os system the font is bolded more. So how to make normal font like in dafont.com

yeah but on the mac you show us a @font-face rendering, whereas you show us a png rendering for the windows.
so it's totally impossible to compare !

if you're visiting dafont.com from the same mac, you will have the PNG rendering that you will probably find clean.
if you're using an @font-face rendering on windows, you will probably have the same problems that the mac's @font-face rendering.

the problem comes from your @font-face rendering, not from the mac itself.

At this moment I dont have windows OS to show you. I was rendering the same like in windows with @font-face and in mac os. In windows @font-face renders just fine like in dafont png file. But in mac os is rendering with much more bold and it looks very different as you can see in images.

sorry, i can't explain this.

it's not related to dafont (we dont have @font-face kits to download)
maybe you should ask to the website where you downloaded/made the kit.
