Support Rendering of Custom Fonts (like First Nations Indigenous Fonts)

0 Likes

Currently, it does not seem that Canvas will render custom fonts (like https://fnel.arts.ubc.ca/resources/font/ ) that are installed locally.  Chrome and local applications can but Canvas does not render the custom font neither in the doc view nor in any pages.

Thanks for sharing this idea. Are you the local Canvas admin for your district? If you are, have you added the custom font to the account's global CSS—and if you haven't, have you asked the local Canvas admin to add the custom font to the account theme on your behalf? That is typically the process to follow to ensure that custom fonts render correctly in Canvas.

We'll keep this idea in Moderating status as we look forward to your response.
