After opening a file from another designer, this Chinese font has taken over my "omens – regular" font file. Anytime I use it, it converts to this font and each time I need to change a font weight, I must do it manually. As you can imagine, I use our company font all day so this slows me down quite a bit. Have you heard of this? It seems like some sort of font virus. I've researched removing it, yet can't seem to find the original font file to get rid of, which is even weirder."
We tried moving the font family to the trash, emptying the trash, rebooting the machine, and re-adding the font family and it still is happening.
Any script i may be able to download that would go through a folder/subfolders open all CAD files, change the font for all text styles to Arial, save the file and then close it?
I work with a AutoCAd drawing that's been drawn in LisCad, then Output to AutoCAD for continuing work.
I want to use a font that a collegue used on his drawing (he used Microstation but all our drawings are first done in LisCad), I have it in the AutoCAD font library, but for some reason it doesn't show under properties in the STYLE drop box in my drawing... Is that because my drawing comes from Liscad?
I guess I can copy a word from another AutoCAD drawing to get it in, but if I can get in into my drop list it would be handy!
I have dwg drawing sent to me with archstyle font or text. The archstyle is missing on my text format autocad 2012. How to downoad or import archstyle to my autocad 2012
I recently got a new computer at work but now some of my font styles aren't showing up as they did before: the font is different and the formating is not the same. I still have access to my old computer, which still has AutoCAD on it and the drawings show up fine. I looked in the forum and people have mentioned sending the font style to the new computer but I am not sure how to do this.
i've got a drawing from another company that has a bunch of points. i need to change all the styles to flatten them to a 0' elevation instead of the elevation they were shot at. i don't want to go through each point style to change that one setting. is there a way to do them all at one time?
I have a text style called standard2 in a drawing, I put all text whether it be in blocks, dimensions, mtext, dtext everything into the style I want. Purge the drawing which gets rid of the style, save it, close it then reopen. I then get Standard style reset, existing objects moved to standard2 and now the standard2 style is back in the drawing. This problem is only affecting some drawings and not all drawings.
I've had some problems with dimension fonts resizing to the last edited dim style. I have attached an example drawing. There are 2 styles here 'Gdims' and 'Stand Dims' The Gdims need to be small font and the Stand dims need to be larger. I have set the size of each style, but if I stretch the larger dimensions they auto resize the font to the set size of my last amended dim style (in this case GDims). You'll see in the attachment that I have resized the 2 blocks and the dimension font has become smaller than the rest.
Not all of my drawing behave in the same way so I'm assuming there's a setting I need to change, but as yet I haven't found it.
How to make a macro that changes the font for a specific Text Style. The name of the Text Style is eg. "3mm", which I want to change from RomanS to Verdana.
I'm having difficulty making a change to multiple texts. I received a drawing from another firm that uses different text styles than my firm. I can change all the text styles to mine, but they all hold onto their original fonts. How to change the fonts in multiple instances.
how to achieve the styling that the matrix font has using other fonts? i know that there's a downloadable version of the actual font Miltown (and a Miltown II as an alternate version), but what i'd like to do is take a source font (presumably the font that Miltown started from) and give it the random offset/winded line effect that the matrix font has. once i know how to do this for at least one font i'd be able to apply this effect to other objects (not just text objects).
I am getting font style(like regular, bold, italic etc) like this-
while (count < fontCount) {//loop , which iterate throgh used fonts. ATE::IFont currentFont = fontRefArray.Item(count); if (!currentFont.IsNull()) { FontRef fontRef = currentFont.GetRef(); AIFontKey fontKey = NULL; result = sAIFont->FontKeyFromFont(fontRef, &fontKey); result = sAIFont->GetUserFontName(fontKey, fontname, 50); result = sAIFont->GetPostScriptFontName(fontKey, psname, 50); result = sAIFont->GetFontStyleName(fontKey, stylename, 50); result = sAIFont->GetFontFamilyUIName(fontKey, familyname, 50); }
For some fonts(not all the fonts) , Style name is comming as empty string, however for other fonts its working. Not sure why its working for some fonts and not for others. Other font properties are coming fine for all fonts.When its failing, result is not kNoErr, but i dont know that how to get the exact error?
We're transitioning from ACA2012 to ACA2014. I'm also trying to get away from putting my blocks in DesignCenter and having our users insert Annotation (tags) from the Ribbon bar.
When I insert our door tag (or any schedule tag) from the ribbon bar, it is automatically changing the text style to the current text style. I'd rather it just use the style built into the tag. I know that can be controlled in the Designcenter content (right-click) - but how do I change that from the ribbon bar?

The requirement of above information to me is that i am making a Graphics viewer for a specific purpose which reads and displays Graphical Entities from DXF (ascii) file.
I got a work that I have to change around 1200 drawings from Microsoft Visio to AutoCad 2009. One annoying thing is that the Visio drawings got Arial as text style and my company want everything in their own textstyle. So at the moment I single click all text bar and change the style, there must be a faster way to fix this.

I want to create a yellow font that has a transparent stroke inside of it. Also I want to add another white stroke behind the text on the outside. I have done this by adding a black stroke inside the text and then coping the layer and adding a white stroke to the outside and putting this layer behind the first. I then select the black stroke with the magic selection tool and delete it. This gives me the effect that I want, however when I delete the black stroke the font is not smooth like it once was.
