Pages 5.5.2: The text inside of a table in Pages appears thinner than the same size text outside of the table. How can I make the text look the same inside and out?

Despite being the same size/font, the text inside my tables in Pages looks slightly thinner than the text in the "regular" document. I would like the the text to appear uniform throughout. Can you help me?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8), null

I don't think the text is actually thinner in the table, it is just a display problem. The output to pdf or print will be the same.


For some reason, Pages appears to use color anti-aliasing in the document body and grayscale anti-aliasing in the table cell, and the color looks heavier, even though it really isn't.

The top line above is in the document body, and the bottom in a table cell; the text formatting in both lines is the same.
