I thought you were asking a more difficult question.

Medium weights are heavier than Regular weights.

For example, the vertical stroke of the  I in Minion Pro Regular is 85 
units wide, in Minion Pro Medium it's 96 units.  Semi-bold is 116 
units, and Bold is 134 units.

The Optical fonts have a similar distribution. Minion Pro Caption's I 
is 87 units wide, Minion Pro Medium Caption is 96.
