I have installed the new set of fonts in c:\windows\fonts folder. How can I import them in my Responsve HTML5 project in RH 2017?

I think we need to know more about what you're wanting to achieve.

You don't typically need to import fonts into Robohelp to start using them. However, using them on your PC does not mean they are available to your users. I believe your output type, output destination and license of the fonts themselves will determine what you need to do.

Also note, I only have theoretical knowledge of what's necessary, so might not be much help in the long run.

Ok, so what I am wanting to do is this.

We have a set of custom font named Proxima Nova that we have copied in c:\windows\font folder.

We want to use it in the content of the Responsive HTML5 help output.

So essentially whenever we output and distribute the Responsive help files the output should be visible in the new font.

Would only a copy to c:\windows\font folder help? Or do I have to do something in RH as well?

Try replacing the semi-colon after the first otf reference with a comma.

That way you're comma-separating your font files.

To add to Amber's answer, I'm guessing the headings are wrong as you haven't added it font to the heading style.

h1 {

font-family: Quicksand;

font-weight: bold;

font-size: 24.0pt;

}

where Quicksand is the name of your font in style dropdowns.
