    Hi,

    are you using dynamic text for the text and it is all one text box? 

    If so maybe try separate dynamic text boxes for the heading.

    But dynamic text can't 'bold' text in the middle of a bit of text- it is all one type (and why all your text is all the same as the heading text). 

    Plus dynamic text sometimes does not sit correctly in place on browsers. A major pain, as dynamic text is crisper quality than static text.

    You could use static text and place the text box x and y co-ordinates on rounded up whole numbers eg x = 5 and y = 8 (not x = 5.1 and y = 7.9).

    Hope this maybe helps.

    Cheers

    Hi Greg,

     

    Thank you for explaining where I may have gone wrong. This is all in one text box an is 'Static Text' not dynamic. I think another way around this would be to create the text in Illustrator, create outline and then import the text into An that way so I can keep my styling as you say I can't have bold amongst my thin text. 

     

    Thanks

    That's exactly what Static text already does.
