In practice, I have found the need to exercise a third option: to embed the company’s fonts directly into Adobe Captivate.Īfter some fishing around on the internet, I was able to find a blog post that described how to do this.

This method requires internet access and access specifically to Google since we are using JavaScript to link to the font while the e-learning module is playing.Some fonts are not available via Google Fonts (usually because they are not free of charge). ![]() However, there are limitations to this method. If the font is available via Google Fonts, the following blog post by Steven Warwick outlines how you can add it to your project using some simple JavaScript. In these cases, even though Adobe conveniently incorporates access to Adobe TypeKit fonts directly into Adobe Captivate, I have no justification for purchasing additional font licenses (via Adobe TypeKit) because the company has already purchased the appropriate licenses for the fonts and acquired the files.Īfter Adobe TypeKit, the second easiest option would be to access the fonts as Web fonts –if they are available via Google Fonts. ![]() This is how I typically acquire new system fonts.
