Alright, so I'm trying to convert TTF fonts to a shape, or outline, or whatever. the only way I found after looking for a long time was to explode the text. That doesn't seem to work though. When I enter this command this is what I get.

 

Command: txtexp

Select text to be EXPLODED: 1 found

1 text object(s) have been exploded to lines.

The line objects have been placed on layer 0.

 

And then all my text just dissapears. Like the lines are not created or something. Is there a way to convert TTF to an outline or a shape, or lines. Whatever it is, I just don't want it TTF anymore.

 

The font I used is ''Phantom Stencil'' Just copy and paste that in google, first link, it's a free font.

Try DXBOUT used to work on fonts not sure about TTF and would explode them good for 3d effects text with 3D height.

Maybe it was not actually lost. Autocad put it somewhere in your drawing window. Have you tried zooming out and find the exploded text?

I have had some experiences like this before but I was able to find the exploded text.

Or, once the text is exploded, AutoCAD is placing it on a layer that is turned off.
