Publishing with Typekit

Report · Aug 17, 2017

Hi anyone,

I may have this wrong, but is the only way you can successfully use a Typekit font, to know in advance where your publish SCORM package is going to end up?

I have a couple of modules that are going to be handed over to international banks around the globe, and then it is their task to host on their own LMS's..... therefore I don't know the actual domains where the projects will eventually be residing. Anyone know any solutions to this problem.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Ashley,

Typekit web fonts do require the domain of the site be listed. However, these details can change over time if you update the domain list once you know where the assets are going to live. This might not work if you fully hand off the project but thought I'd mention it just in case.

Cheers,

Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,

Many thanks for your feedback - I only wish it was better news as once completed and delivered I am looking for a pretty final hand off.

It's probably a proviso that Adobe could highlight nearer the front of their Typekit blurb as it's quite a considerable limitation. Not sure whether its a technical or licensing issue that requires the end domains be stated, but it sure would have saved me half a day of work had I realised up front.

Hey ho, lesson learned.

Thanks again,

Ashley
