Hi,

I have a query. I have many funky fonts as visual stimuli in one of my studies.

Its working fine on my computer.

So when I run the study and a participant doesnt have those fonts on his/her system / computer, will it still work ?

Thanks

Dave

It depends on what you mean by "work." The script will still run, but If a given font is not available on the participant's system, it will be substituted with Arial. In that sense, the script will still work.

However, if the "funky fonts" are an integral part of the study / design / experimental manipulation, the study will not work as intended, i.e., it will look completely different than on your system. In that case, you may want to consider implementing some alternative, e.g., using images as your visual stimuli (depicting whatever text you have now printed in the desired funky font).
