Bar Code Font
Bar Code Font
(OP)
Greetings:
We place bar codes on our drafting prints for our shop. I typically use a file that has a title block already set up for a customer, and until now, I've not had a problem selecting the font that makes bar code and putting a text note on each print. I chose a new title block file, and now am attempting to put a bar code on the print, and the bar code font is available to select; however, when I select it, it gives me an error message saying font not valid and places the text as it is typed. Does anyone know how I can make this font available to this file that I have? I am using NX9.
Thanks in advance,
Brent

I'm not sure. When I click the text Icon, I have a long list of fonts that appear to be available to use, the default with this file is Stylus BT, but when I choose any other font, it gives me an invalid font message.

Does NX require the fonts be copied to a NX font folder defined in the default settings file?
