How to make font rendering lighter?

Below are two screenshots, the left from JUCE, the right from PhotoShop. These are using the same font (Avenir Light), but as can be seen, JUCE’s rendering is significantly heavier. I experience this with all fonts, not just this one, and particularly on OS X. Is there any way in JUCE to achieve a lighter rendering? [JUCE][Photoshop] This issue only applies to light text on dark background. JUCE renders, dark on light with a lighter weight.
