Embed Font in eWriter eBook for Windows ?

[Wolfgang Baer]

Is it possible to embed a font into an eBook executable for Windows made with H&M EWriter?
Goal is that the eBook uses a font which does not need to be installed on the host PC.

I only found information about how to do this for Standard ePub but nothing for Windows eBook.

Thanks for help.

Hi Wolfgang,

I haven't tried this myself but it should work. EWriter is "WebHelp in a box" so you should be able to embed your own web fonts, using the instructions that you can find in this tutorial on the forum:

Basically, you use any fonts you like in your project and then in the settings in the template you map those fonts to the ones you embed in the WebHelp. Note that you must include the font files in your baggage, and that their names should not contain any spaces or special characters (because HTML...). To avoid licensing problems, I would recommend using open Google fonts or other public domain fonts for this.
