Wrong Fonts, Missing Letters when published as HTML 5 and viewed in IE
By
Alison Coops
As we get closer to the day Flash goes away, I occasionally try to publish courses as HTML5 with Flash backup instead of Flash with HTML5 backup. When I do, and people try to view it in Internet Explorer, they see it in a different font (not a big deal) but there are letters missing. I found this article: https://articulate.com/support/article/Learners-See-the-Wrong-Font-or-Missing-Letters-in-Internet-Explorer. We're encountering this in our Test LMS which is included as a Trusted site in Internet Explorer. The article makes it sound like adding it as a trusted site (where font downloads are allowed) will solve the problem, but it doesn't.

Hi Alison,
Thanks for reaching out and I'm glad you were able to find our documentation on this issue.
Were you able to check the font download setting as well or add the website as a trusted site?
Hi Leslie,
Yes, Font downloads are disabled for the internet and I can't change it.
Font downloads are enabled for trusted sites, and our test LMS (the site in
question) is added as a trusted site.

Hi Alison,
If the font download is enabled for trusted sites, and the LMS was added following the directions below, it should be displaying normally.

.If that's still not working on your end, you'll want to instruct learners to use another browser, such as Chrome.
