    Captivate 2023 can only create  responsive projects. That means that the fonts need to be rendered on runtime (same as for responsive projects in previous versions). Fonts are required to be websafe in that situation, which means that you can only use the fonts presented in Captivate. They are now mostly Google fonts, whereas in previous version Adobe fonts were used.

    Reason why this was not a problem in non-responsive projects in previous versions: the static text containers were converted to images on publishing. Only the dynamic text (those including variables) were rendered on runtime. More information in this blog post which was written for Captivate Classic, but you'll have to focus on the parts for responsive projects:
