So I'm tired of waiting for this dev team on this. I'm convinced they are just not doing anything about it. So I had the inspiration to fix this and I found the problem in their coding. TLDR: they are inheriting the Merriweather font in the container for the description.
For Instructional Designers who can't wait for the devs to implement the fix, here is the solution:
- When you publish a course, extract the .zip file.
- Navigate to scormcontent > lib > main.bundle.css
- Open this file in Notepad, or wherever you want to edit the code.
- Hit CTRL+F to open the Find window and type in: ".overview__description"
- You'll notice after the bracket "{" a sentence: "font-family:merriweather,serif;"
- Change this to "font-family:lato,sans-serif;"
- Save the file
- Navigate back to the root folder, select all the folders and files, Send to > Compressed .zip
- Your course should work without randomly switching to Merriweather font when the screen gets too small, or on mobile.
For the devs: Look at the solution above and implement the fix inside of Rise so we don't have to do this massive workaround.
