NX 8 true type fonts

NX 8 true type fonts

NX 8 true type fonts

(OP)
Hi,
NX 8 support truetype font, so I can write and use all true type characters.
The problems is that truetype character seam to have a big thickness.
This thickness is show as the image attached.
Exist a truetype font that as a small thickness like NX fonts ?

Thank you...

Using NX 8 and TC9.1

RE: NX 8 true type fonts

Try find a copy of the Solid Edge fonts somewhere on the net (....)
I know that they contain "wireframe truetype fonts" ( And a number of usable symbols)

Maybe we could ask Siemens to provide these fonts for NX also.
( i have not looked, but might be available on the siemens download ?)

Regards,
Tomas

RE: NX 8 true type fonts

Sorry, by definition, TrueType (and OpenType) fonts are 'filled' fonts. That is, they are not 'stroked' but rather more like 'typeface', as in a printing press, thus the name 'TrueType'. Now there are some which are have a 'thin' appearance, but I've never found anything that looks like they were drawn with a single 'stroke'.
