I create my fonts using TypeTool 3 on Windows, where they behave perfectly.  My friend uses a Mac computer, and my fonts render strangely on her screen.  In general the entire font appears too thickly drawn, but some small elements are rendered too thinly.  This is especially apparent where two similar sized elements appear close to each other, such as the two dots in a colon, a dieresis mark, an equals sign, or a semicolon, but also in many other cases.  Please see attached screenshots.
 
I assumed this was caused by a Mac setting (and maybe that has something to do with it), but the problem doesn't appear with other fonts on her system - only in my ones.  So there definitely seems to be something inherent in my/TypeTool fonts, for which I'd like to find a fix.
 
Thanks for any light you can shed on this,
Daniel Reeve
