That was it, TY! This is what I got from FontSquirrel: @font-face { font-family: 'RobotoBold'; src: url('font/Roboto-Bold-webfont.eot'); src: url('font/Roboto-Bold-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), url('font/Roboto-Bold-webfont.woff') format('woff'), url('font/Roboto-Bold-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'), url('font/Roboto-Bold-webfont.svg#RobotoBold') format('svg'); font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; } Needed to change font-weight to bold. Fixed it.
