Japanese Only in MS Gothic

[Ryan Stanford]

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.

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.

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.
