You’ve always had a choice of fonts for the clickthrough and lead capture overlays that you add to your VideoAds. Now, your font choices are better.
Our designer put together a selection of interesting, attractive fonts that give you a wider range of font choice and make your overlays look more polished and professional.
New overlay fonts
“The new fonts give VideoAd creators the ability to choose between modern and traditional, geometric and rounded, and serif and sans serif,” said our designer. “Whatever a VideoAd’s subject or tone, we now offer an appropriate overlay font to accompany it.”
As always, when we introduce a new feature, we’ve made sure that none of your existing VideoAds will be affected. Overlay fonts stay exactly as you originally set them unless you open the Studio and make a new font selection.
If you decide to update overlays in an existing VideoAd, when you select an overlay, you’ll notice that the font menu on the Overlays tab is blank.
Updating fonts for an existing overlay
Click the drop-down arrow to display the font list and select one of the new fonts.
In addition to the new fonts, you’ll notice some small changes to the arrangement of formatting options on the Overlays tab.
Overlays tab - Rearranged formatting options
All the same options are available. We’ve just distributed the options more evenly by moving the Drop shadow option down beside the Transparency slider.
I’d like to read an earlier post about creating overlays that work at any embed size.
