alam k Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 How do i draw a number (e.g. 3 ) 79mm high and 50mm wide with the character stroke of 14mm ?? Quote
ReMark Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Arcs that are eventually turned into polylines and given a width? Find a suitable font, type the number 3 (at the desired height), explode it (using the Text Explode tool found in Express Tools) then edit to taste? Quote
bill_borec Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Type the # in a blank dwg. and save it. Insert the #.dwg as a block into a new .dwg with set x and y scale for the block insertion. Done. I think the same could be done with an inserted xref? BTW: What's a character stroke? and why is it so small with respect to the height/width of the character? Quote

alam k Posted February 24, 2012 Author Posted February 24, 2012 @bill_borec These dimensions are for the UK number plate characters, whick im trying to write. But im finding it a bit difficult as i havnt used Cad in a long time, iv seemed to have forgotten most things Quote
