Issue with using a font in CAD

Post by NHAnimator »

I'm using AutoCAD LT and have just tried to bring in fonts I created with Scanahand. The fonts appear fine in the text-entry dialog page, but do not display correctly in the working space. Instead, they seem to revert to a standard, or generic, display.

I have posted a partial screen capture to illustrate my problem (which shows both the text-entry and working space versions of the font) at the following page: http://www.mcnallyassociates.com/cadfont.png

The fonts work fine in Word, Photoshop, and other apps.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

I've uploaded the screen shot (after removing some white space):

I have and that kind of clued me in on it being AutoCAD which is the problem.

If I open a new CAD project, the fonts appear to work fine. If I open an existing project, they do not. So it appears to be an issue with the program.

Thanks and please consider the issue resolved at this time.
