Japanese Only in MS Gothic

When I import Japanese text into my Captivate project, I can't set it to Arial. It has to be MS Gothic. Is there any solution to this? I checked the Adobe fonts, but there is no Arial listed.

Correct answer Ryan Stanford

Rather than publishing it with the changes you can always edit the index.html after publishing.

I was shown in the other thread that %40 can substitute @. Seems to work.

If you are publishing a responsive design project I suggest you select a web font that would be available on most systems or an Adobe font that is compatible with Japanese. Arial is a Microsoft system font but I believe Japanese isn't supported. Microsoft released Arial Unicode MS as a way to support international characters. Unfortunately, Microsoft has stopped supporting Arial Unicode MS but you might be able to find the font for your system. Here is a document about that:

Your video on useing Google Fonts has helped me so far: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9ya-waDLeQ

Problem is that the new links for Google Fonts use @ in them and Captivate removes them and the text afterward when publishing the index file. Do you know of any fix? Thanks.
