Syntax
FORCEFONT=fontname
The FORCEFONT option forces the Help file to substitute the specified font for all requested fonts. Use this option to create Help files that can be viewed on systems that do not have all fonts available.
Parameter
fontname
Specifies the name of an available font. Font names must be spelled the same as they are in the Fonts dialog box in Control Panel. Font names cannot exceed 20 characters. If an invalid font name is given, the Help compiler uses the MS Sans Serif font as the default.
