Bold font not working

Hi, I've been trying to use Edu font (from Google Fonts) in regular and semibold on my Storyline file but the bold version doesn't seem to work on Preview or Publish. I saw a few other posts with the same issue over the years but haven't found a solution. Would greatly appreciate any help!

I tried Edu NSW ACT Foundation https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Edu+NSW+ACT+Foundation?category=Sans+Serif,Display,Handwriting,Monospace&preview.text=Web%20Training&preview.text_type=custom&query=edu+

And Edu TAS Beginner https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Edu+TAS+Beginner?category=Sans+Serif,Display,Handwriting,Monospace&preview.text=Web%20Training&preview.text_type=custom&query=edu+

They seem to work fine on Word, I don't see anything to suggest the font files are corrupted. I just updated Storyline and it's not made a difference.

I'm open to suggestions for a different font that works on Storyline, if there's anything else that has a similar rounded appearance.

Thanks!

      Hi John, thanks for your reply. Yord's suggestion on that thread about downloading static fonts, each weight separately seems to have worked!
