Hello,
I am planning on using a Google Font for the HTML output of my project, which will be published online exclusively. Hence, I wanted to use the method indicated by Google Fonts to link to their font in the HTML documents, that is, by adding a link to the font's stylesheet directly sourced from their server, like so:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Font+Name">
I tried adding this tag inside the <head> wrapper of the master page used for my project's HTML output. However, it appears that Flare automatically removes whatever I add inside the <head> when building.
Does anyone know of a way to add a <link> tag to my project's HTML output without Flare removing it when building?
Thank you.
Linking to external stylesheet from master page
Re: Linking to external stylesheet from master page
In your target you have presumably set a Master Stylesheet - but you also need to select Allow local stylesheets, otherwise all your other stylesheet links are removed from the output.
Also, the link is not valid XHTML as the tag isn't being closed - you need to have /> at the end; i.e.

Code: Select all

Hi Dave. I forgot to mention: I am using MadCap Flare 11. Is this feature available in Flare 11? Because I do not see this option in my target properties.

That feature was added in Flare 12.DLL wrote:Hi Dave. I forgot to mention: I am using MadCap Flare 11. Is this feature available in Flare 11? Because I do not see this option in my target properties.

RETIRED, but still fond of all the Flare friends I've made. See you around now and then!

No, it's not in v11.DLL wrote:Hi Dave. I forgot to mention: I am using MadCap Flare 11. Is this feature available in Flare 11? Because I do not see this option in my target properties.
So I'd advise that you don't set a master stylesheet in your target, and leave it as default.
