Prevent Captivate from converting Text to images

Question

When I publish my project (Captivate 9) all of the text fields with local variables in them seem look different. Doing a little research I found that Captivate converts all static text to PNG images and all dynamic text it just ignores.

Although the fonts are the same this causes them to look very different and it is quite obvious to the user.

Any way I can tell captivate to not convert the images to PNG's?

Also, I do realize that I wouldn't have had this problem if I had used a responsive project but it is a little late in the game to convert this project to a responsive one plus I don't need any added features or benefits that the responsive projects offers.

Thanks!

You can't tell it not to do it.You can insert a variable in every text caption. Just make sure the variable is not defined.

Reason for that conversion is that no fonts can be embedded in Captivate. For static text you can use whatever font you want, because it will be converted to images. If you want dynamic text to look the same, be sure to use a websafe font for static text as well.
