Font substitution settings tell memoQ to use a different font in the translated document. If the source language uses a different script than the target language, this may be necessary.
For example, when a document is translated from Japanese into English, the translated document may need to use a different main font.
If you have a font substitution profile in your project, memoQ replaces the font when it exports the translated document.
Requires memoQ project manager: You need the project manager edition of memoQ to manage online projects.
You need to be a project manager or an administrator: You may manage online projects only if you are member of the Project managers or Administrators group on the memoQ server, or else you were granted the Project manager role in the project.

Use an existing font substitution profile in the project

Find a font substitution profile on the memoQ server
If there are too many font substitution profiles on the memoQ server, you can filter the list. At the top of the Font substitution settings tab, there is a Name/description box.
Type a word or two in the Name/description box. It will narrow the list immediately to those font substitution profiles that have those words in their names or descriptions.
To sort the list by a detail or another: Click the column header of the column you need. For example, to sort the list by name, click the Name header at the top of the list.

Export or import a font substitution profile
You can export a font substitution profile into an .mqres file. An .mqres file is an XML file where memoQ saves resources like font substitution profiles, QA profiles, TM settings etc. These are called light resources because they don't contain a large amount of linguistic data.
To export a font substitution profile:
1.In the list, select the font substitution profile you need to export. 2.Under the list, click Export. A Save As window opens. Or: Right-click the font substitution profile. From the menu, choose Export.
3.Find a folder and a name for the file, and click Save. memoQ will export all details from the font substitution profile in the file. You can also import a font substitution profile from a .mqres file. When you import an .mqres file, memoQ will always create a new font substitution profile.
Because memoQ saves all kinds of resources in .mqres files, you need to make sure that your .mqres file contains a font substitution profile.
To import a font substitution profile from an .mqres file:
1.At the bottom of the font substitution profiles tab, click Import new. An Open window appears. 2.Select the .mqres file. Click Open. 3.The Import new font substitution settings window opens. It's the same as the Create new font substitution settings window. 4.memoQ will pick up the name of the font substitution profile from the .mqres file. However, you can give it a new name, and type a new description, too. 5.Click OK. To learn more: See Help about the Create new font substitution settings window.

Some changes are not saved automatically. When there are changes you need to save, the green tick mark icon at the top left will become orange:
To save changes to the online project, click this button.
