Type Rendering Mix is a tiny JavaScript library that allows to apply styles only when Core Text is used (iOS and OS X) in order to achieve a more consistent rendering while preserving the accuracy of sub-pixel antialiasing.
Type Rendering Mix is useful in many situations. Let’s say you are using Proxima Nova on your website. Due to the way the Core Text rasterizer works, fonts will look heavier on OS X and iOS than on other platforms. Using Type Rendering Mix you can instead decrease the font weight for browsers that use Core Text to render text. By only applying changes when Core Text is used you will achieve a more consistent rendering while preserving the accuracy of sub-pixel antialiasing.
