Find instance of a font
I just submitted a feature request to address actually finding the fonts. I work with Storyline projects created by others that contain fonts not installed on my system.
Blindly replacing a font presents a systematic problem because fonts differ in spacing, width, and height, a global replacement can unintentionally disrupt layouts, cause text wrapping issues, or negatively impact slide aesthetics. Without knowing where replacements occur, there is no efficient way to verify that content still displays correctly.
My request was to revise the “Replace Fonts” feature to “Find and Replace Fonts”
-- Locate all instances of a selected font across the project (including slide numbers and objects).
-- Navigate to each occurrence for review.
-- Optionally step through replacements rather than applying them globally.
-- Provide a summary of where replacements occurred.
This would significantly improve quality control, especially in large or shared projects, by allowing developers to verify visual integrity after font substitution rather than relying on a blind global change.
