Question

Using custom fonts in Robohelp Webhelp skins

We use Open Sans in Robohelp Webhelp CSS, which turns out well. However the Webhelp skin doesnt show Open Sans. We edited the .skn and added refrence to Open Sans. But to no avail. The content does show Open Sans but the sidebar with the TOC in Webhelp shows the default font. 

However if we install Open Sans on the machine, the Webhelp content on both panes shows Open Sans.

We cant expect every user to download and/or install Open Sans.

Could you Help?

 

Regards,

SunilH

I don't believe they can be edited.

Thanks Peter! 

We are not using the Responsive Layouts, but the older Webhelp. We are using the Clean_Tangerine skin, I checked the install location as well as the Project folder for the layout.css file. We cant find it!

All we could find is the Clean_Tangerine.skn file. We changed the refs to Open Sans in this file, but still the same issue. The sidepane doesnt budge, still shows the default font.

We've updated (ref to Open Sans) the CSS of the project, the skn file on the skin, added the font as baggage file to the project. Anything else?
