Hello everyone,

Here, using CoffeeCup HTML Editor Version 12.7 Build 454.

I would like to have font smoothing on this website like we can see everywhere, even here at CoffeCup.

In other words, I don't want this:

It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Still could not get that result. Maybe I will have to change the font and other details...

I tried that recently for some Google fonts, but it really didn't help much. They looked a bit better in Chrome and were too heavy in other browsers.
Another suggestion I found, for using web fonts, move the SVG version up in the @font-face order above the TT and Open-Type. I still had spidery fonts in Chrome when I tried this.
I think the best way around the problem is to use standard fonts for body text and limit web fonts to headings, quotes, etc.

Some fonts display better than others, you might have to experiment a bit.

@Eric: I've changed internally without publishing it.

@paintbrush: this really does make sense. Just wanted that it looked like here , just perfect :)
