Mtext

Mtext

(OP)
I am currently running windows 2000i on Windows 2000.  And I have problems
with mtext with a specific font - windsor.  I can write single line text
with windsor but when I go to create text with mtext the font that shows up
and prints is the default autocad text.  This is a problem in that our old
drawings use a lot of mtext with the windsor font.  Any suggestions?

RE: Mtext

RE: Mtext

Probably AutoCAD cannot find the font. Place it in one of AutoCAD's support directories.
