after collect a file in after effect, text font size changes in other computer

Question

Hello. I have a problem with collecting file and send it to my colleague.

I collect a file, send it to him. Then he said that size of all text are really small and their position change, but in my computer they are ok.

Why they change? Is there any problem with my computer or his?

The After Effects project references the fonts that are active on the host computer.

The best way to assure consistent results is to use a font that's available in the Adobe Font library (Adobe Fonts | Explore unlimited fonts) which is available to every Creative Cloud plan.

You can use Layer > Create Shapes from Text on your end prior to sending the AEP file, but that can be a lot of extra work and also limits editability later.
