When you use desktop fonts to create and publish your web outputs, customer experience is not optimal. Animate introduces Google fonts that provide a consistent typographic experience across all form factors. Google fonts are free open source fonts served by Google servers. For more information on Google fonts and the original font designers, see https://fonts.google.com/about and https://fonts.google.com/attribution.
Advantages of using Google fonts are:
- Caching: After an initial download, the fonts are stored in your local systems and you do not have to download them repeatedly. This loads the text faster.
- Open source: They are freely available, and can be redistributed or modified based on your requirements.
- Compatiblity: They work seamlessly with your advertising and web content.
- Responsive: They provide a responsive content experience across all form factors for a consistent aesthetic appeal.
