Bullet Points Not Listed in Captivate

Hi,

I am working on a project and trying to use "checkmark" bullet points. This isn't listed in the Captivate bullet points options.

Does anyone have a suggestion on how to add or import bullet point options that are not currently listed in Captivate?

Thank you.

    You cannot import checkmarks into the list type / formatting area in Captivate. Options are:

    1. You could place a check mark image in front of the text object.

    2. You could create your own list and spacing or indenting between the "check mark" and text and replace a font using a Wing ding from the character map for a checkmark or by finding a check mark for the glyphs in the character map for the font that you are using. (You do not use the default list tool in Captivate) The question is how would it work in html5 where there is no font embedding. You may want to use a typekit font for this reason.

    David, I used the WIngdings checkmarks a lot for SWF output, because I was sure that text was converted to images. This will not really work well for HTML output. I learned to use images instead of glyphs from a font, but have still more to explore the Typekit fonts.
