Hello,
I love the Google Roboto font (https://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Roboto) and would like to use it in my manuals. The font is not present on most computers though.
If I choose to use it, can it be included in my WebHelp outputs? I saw there is embedded font support for PDF output (improved in H&M 7), but I can't find info about WebHelp.
Thanks!
Jean-Robert

Re: Font embedding for WebHelp
Hello Tim,
For me, the proposed solution is a bit too complicated to do and to maintain.
I really like the look of the documentation using Google Roboto Light font. I was wondering if this got easier to do with H&M 7? There seems to be some changes about font embedding with PDF. What about WebHelp?
Thank you!

Hi Jean-Robert,
The 3.2 update of the V3 Responsive skins in the Premium Pack have support for Google Web Fonts, and you can also use them in Help+Manual directly so you get a preview. Version 3.2 will be released with Help+Manual 7.2, probably in October.
