w/o seeing the code that generated the figure it is hard to know, but the "bold look" probably arises from rendering the same tick labels twice in the same location, eg if you have a twinx, as it appears you do, but haven't made the ticks invisible (as per my earlier suggestion) on one of the axes. Perhaps we should make the ticks on the "twin" axes invisible by default. Also, when posting continuations related to a theme, eg your previous post on twin axes formatters, please try to keep them in the same thread by "replying" to yourself in the earlier thread. This makes it easier for people following the thread to see everything in one place, particularly those using threaded mail readers, as well as the future generations of googlers who will pick this conversation up on mail archive websites like nabble.
