Standards Based Development

The numerical system we use for font-weight in CSS is taken from the TrueType / OpenType system that in itself appears to have been derived from the Linotype numbering system of nine steps, which differs slightly from the ten-step version designed by Adrian Frutiger. However, neither system is robust enough to describe the fourteen weights documented by Jon Tan.
