How to specify bold font in spacemacs?

[zhangfand]

Hi, everyone. I find that on default spacemacs use Source Code Pro Bold for bold face fonts. I think this font is too bold for 13pt size. Any idea to set the bold face font to use Source Code Pro Medium Instead?

@dongzhangfan did you find a solution for this?

AFAIK, there isn't a single one off setting which allows this. The way I see you can achieve this is via customize-face for faces you want to control their :weight (boldness of face) but since there are other packages/themes which can I override these settings this might be difficult to achieve.

I think @nixmaniack's solution is best. You can tweak the :weight of the default face. Since this is quite subjective I don't think we should spend too much time on it.

You can config your ".spacemacs" file!

dotspacemacs-default-font '("Source Code Pro"
                           :size 24
                           :weight normal
                           :width normal
                           :powerline-scale 1.1)
