Hi there, is it possible to add other fonts to the Rich Content Editor that are currently not showing in the list in Canvas? Also, is it possible to set a default font in Canvas, so that there is no need to update the font on every Canvas page? Thank you in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Inna_M ...
I am not aware of any way to add additional fonts to the Rich (not "Reach") Content Editor in Canvas. Also, I am not aware of a way to set a default font. According to these Release Notes from late 2016 (which still hold true today), the default font is Lato:

I know this isn't probably the solution you were looking for, but I hope it helps to explain how things have been working for quite some time.
