change font in entire drawing

[Rudbeckia]

hello again,

 

i want to change all of the font in my drawing to something different,

 

i changed it in the set text box and only half of it changed, anyone have an idea why?

 

its all under the same style name, shouldnt it all change if i change the font of that style name?

Some of the text might be blocks or attributes?

It should if every text item was let's say "standard" and your "standard" was set to Romans and you change your "standard" to be arial. You may need to check every text item to make sure they are all the same textstyle.

i changed every text style in the drawing to the font i want

 

and half the lettering with in the drawing is still wrong, when i click on the lettering that is wrong and open the properties manager, it says the correct font name, but its not the correct font

 

what is a text attribute?

think i might smash my computer

 

i have like 15 layouts set up and half the font is wrong ahhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rudbeckia]

can someone please suggest a font that is easy to read and really thin

 

i am having to change all the font b/c when i combined my pdf layouts into one, the font looks fat and you cant read it, so frustrating

Your AutoCAD glossary defines an attribute definition as:

 

"An object that is included in a block definition to store alphanumeric data. Attribute values can be predefined or specified when the block is inserted. Attribute data can be extracted from a drawing and inserted into external files. (ATTDEF)"

Simplex or Romans would work.

 

PM me. I have a idea re: changing text style.

Ryder pointed out that you should change the text STYLE, not the font. If you change the font referenced in a style all text should change. Problems occur when people just change the font. The font often gets embeded and will not subsequently change.

 

As ReMark says, romans & simplex are easy to read fonts.

thanks so much for the help, i just manually changed all the fonts, it was a b****

 

but i have a new problem now: when i printed out the pages, some of the font printed fat or bold and some printed normal, i checked and there is nothing different about the settings, same font same line weight, same everything

 

why would they plot different? it is some setting on my plot set up??

 

i think i am about to go crazy:cry:

All the text have a "Z" elevation of "0"?
