    "archstyl" font available?

    my boss wants autocad archstyl.shx font used in chiefv9.5. it appears that chief uses whatever fonts are available in windows. chief doesn't support .shx, right? he said another font is very similar called "grafix" perhaps? any ideas? he doesn't like city blueprint. kevin

    font style.
    After years of changing to different fonts, we decided to use Arial. We thought it was more important to have the right information and clearly legible and not how architectural the font looked. So now we use Arial for everything in CA and Autocad. Every computer has it so its never a problem when importing or exporting.

    we found archstyl. express tools converted .shx to .ttf i agree that the arch styl is not easy to read, and set the dimensioning back to arial, at least while on the screen.
