Greek in Web Inquisit

Hi
I have a study that is written in Greek. It works well on my computer and Greek letters appear as required on my computer but turn odd when I run the script in Inquisit Web
Tried different font styles

/ fontstyle = ("Arial", 2.4%, true, false, false, false, 5, 161)
and also used 255
Any ideas?
Thanks much

Make sure you save the script as IQX file in Inquisit Lab. You'll run into problems if it's a legacy EXP file.

Thanks much. I copied the script and saved it as a new IQX file and it works

Hi Shlomo,

Below  are a few quick tips to fix Greek text rendering in Inquisit Web:

-Font: Use a font that supports Greek, like "Arial," "Tahoma," or "Noto Sans."
-Encoding: Ensure your script is saved in UTF-8 encoding.
-Font Fallbacks: Try specifying multiple fonts: ("Arial, Tahoma, Noto Sans", 2.4%, true, false, false, false, 5, 161).
-Browser: Test your script in different browsers for compatibility.

Hope it helps!


Thanks much
