All text printing out outlined...

For some reason all of my text, on any drawing file that is on my computer, is printing out as an outline of the text. It plots fine as a pdf but plotting straight to the printer prints all text in outline mode. What is the fix for this? Thanks.

This one is a bit baffling to me but at least you have a work-around by going to PDF and printing that. Could it be a fillmode variable setting? I'm grasping at straws with that suggestion but it is the only thing that comes to mind right off.

 

I'm surprised ReMark hasn't replied to this. I'm sure he has a veritable plethora of ideas.

I had a plethora but I seemed to have misplaced it. Anyone have any ideas where it might be?

TextFill variable?

 

Controls the filling of TrueType fonts while plotting, exporting with the PSOUT command, and rendering.

0 Outputs text as outlines

1 Outputs text as filled images

Try some o' this plethora. I got it from the Autodesk site but they're mostly for previous releases, still some of the options are available.

I can't vouch for its veritability.

Set the FILL command to on.

Set the FILLMODE system variable to 1.

Set the TEXTFILL system variable to 1.

In the Plot dialog box, clear Hide Objects.

Turn off the Hideplot property of the viewport.

There has to be a limerick in there somewhere.

 

I once met a girl named Plethora...

 

Who dressed like the Vampiress Elvira

When dancing she wiggled,

And drinking she giggled,

But sadly her breath smelled of Chimera
