Bold font is currently font-weight: 500 !important; But that does not stand out visually, which should be the purpose of bold text. Please make it font-weight: 700 !important; The font-weight 500 is called ‘Medium’, thus it is actually not bold, which is 700. ---

The current CSS of bold text is font-weight: 500 !important; Please change this to **font-weight: 700 !important;** Bold text stands out better that way.

We are working on it. ---

Can we still expect this? Its a minor effort and makes life for editors so much easier. I see that font size of bold is now 600, but that is effectively the same as 500 for browsers like Chrome, there is not difference. As a test: Say in two seconds which part of the text is bold here? ![chrome_QuMIUO8EB5](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/fibery/original/2X/4/4c56ef105024e98a11c808a4bb35e950afff53d2.png) It is really hard to see, but there are two sections bold in that text. Please make bold 700. ---

This style has already been updated, will be with the new release. ---
