Saved "My Cad Blocks", Font Changed (Why)

[Bob Levin]

I Saved some files from "My Cad Blocks" (Mostly Text) to a CD. When I copied it to My Cad Blocks Library on my Laptop, the font changed. I believe it defaulted to "Arial" or something. The text is now overlapping and messed up. What did I do wrong? The font I am using is "liste thin". Thanks. Happy Sunday, Bob L.

Could it be that on the computer you copied the blocks to you do't have the same font installed on. So it goes to a standard font.

"liste thin"


That font is probably not on your laptop.

copy it from your desktop and install on the laptop

Al: I think you are right. I don't see that font. Although the Laptop is newer than the desktop, they both have windows xp. The font comes with the operating system. Right? Go figure. Thanks Bob L.

No problem. I name my company after my daughter, after all who are we working for any way - our kids... - College, prom, softball, cars, etc. etc...

Anyway - We collect fonts over time, and sometime we get use to those fonts just being there you wold think that the OS would have it, but not always.

Glad it worked out for you.
