Problems with CAD shape files
Thread Content
Recently, when opening CAD files, it keeps asking me to select a font. I gave it a try; the font style is set individually by each person. My problem now is how to remove the shape font from this file, so that I don’t have to select the shape file every time I open it. Thank you first.
It’s because there are new fonts in your file, but they’re not available in CAD; therefore, you need to select an existing shape file to replace the one that’s missing. Do you have any of the file formats from that document? If it exists, place it in the CAD support directory (the default shape files are located in that directory). If you don’t have those shape files, see if you can modify the text style in the file by choosing a more common text style
Just make the changes in the text style
First define a style, then use chtext to change all the fonts in the file to the new style. After that, purge can be used to remove unnecessary fonts
