All posts - New font wont display in Layouts
drtees203 post(s) |
I am trying to match my layouts to the office CAD standards. The standard CAD font we use is, unfortunately, an older plotter pen font that has no truetype or opentype equivalent. We found a very close opentype match; Tekton Pro. However, this font will not display in my Manifold layouts despite being properly installed on Windows 7. This font does work in other programs, such as Word. Is there a way to get this font to work in Manifold?

Post it here so perhaps someone can help you. Don't forget to provide details on what version of Manifold you are using, etc.

(In addition to a request for where to get this or similar font that exhibits the issue...) Try turning off both of the following options under Tools - Options: - Printing, Print using GDI+
- Rendering, Antialias text
Does the font now show in layout window?

Turning off "Print using GDI+" and "Antialias text" appears to have solved the problem. Thank you for the advice. To fill in the missing information from my earlier question: Manifold version 8.0.30.0 running on Windows 7 with 16GB of RAM The font in question is Tekton Pro Extended Regular, purchased from Fontspring.com.
