That isn't really a good example of accessibility + images-maps, as it
doesn't have any... maybe it could be updated to use the tabindex attribute.
google for "font-weight", "line-height" and "letter-spacing"
Note that font-weight wont always reduce the line width.
You could also try embedding a font.

Not sure why you want to do that it is doing, when you can simply do a
