The way bug #67744 was fixed, buy explicitly correcting the weight reported by the system for 'Courier Std: Medium' to zero ("medium"), means that it won't help for any other fonts. So this should probably be un-duplicated.

I don’t see why this was made a duplicate of bug 69254 when it was fixed independently.
