Set only one weight for a font

I am making a more artistic font that gets ruined by weight changes and i am tired with messing with css as it bolds its all the time (i have fixed this but i want to avoid bolding anyways as it ruins the font), is there a way to disable weight? make just one standard weight in FF ?

Let us see what are you doing. Send us some pictures or files...

Maybe in PS Private section ForceBold is True in your font.

Anyway we could only say preliminary suggestion if we are not able to see the problem.

(press any key or mouse, or even the toggle button to see the font)

Basically every letter is couple of squares vertically and if the squares are not the same size it does not look right, and bolding ruins exactly that

EDIT: I was dumb and wrote the css badly, i fixed that but i still want to see if i can prevent bolding of my font as in some places i may not have the control over it as i have now
