Embedded fonts in Adobe AIR Help?

[MelanieeOo]

Is it possible to embed fonts in Adobe AIR Help?

[Jeff_Coatsworth]

which flavour? browser-based or locally-installed?

[MelanieeOo]

sorry, locally-installed AIR Help

[Jeff_Coatsworth]

I don't recall seeing anyplace where you specify what fonts you want included, so I would think it probably includes them automatically. Are you finding that this isn't the case?

The fonts are whatever you specifiy in your CSS. To the best of my knowledge and without testing, you are reliant on those fonts being installed on the users PC. There is no way of embedding fonts that I am aware of.

The fonts have to be installed on the user's PC. If they are not installed, the AIR Help does not display the fonts of the css, but substitutional ones.

I thought of embedding fonts because for pdf documents this is possible...

Interesting - sounds like it might be a wish list item - log it here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&product=38
