Question

RH10 to Webhelp: Is there a way to embed fonts?

I can't find anything more current than a mention of embedding fonts in RH5... I have some symbols from Wingdings 3 placed in some lines of text.  They look fine in the editor and the preview - and even as a generated chm. but once generated as webhelp, they default to the surrounding font (Arial).

Is there a way to embed Windings 3?  See image below:

Suggestions?

Thanks!

You have to do this via the CSS with an @font-face rule: CSS3 @font-face Rule Also add the font file as a baggage file to your project.

I have a blog post on this in the pipeline but it may be some time before I get around to it. I'll post a link here once I get around to it.

Kind regards,

Willam
