Font Thai.shx Autocad
We have a set of Steel Shop Drawings in dwg format that we are using as reference for a current project. There were a couple of missing fonts from the drawings that create the stacked fractions and other special characters. A google search didn't readily provide any downloadable fonts. Does anyone know where to find the following fonts: ADDWG.SHX, DETAIL.SHX, and DTL-BIG.SHX.

How To Fix Missing Files.shx Autocad
I think the DTL-BIG.SHX font is the one we really need to get the proper fractions and characters. Alternatively, if anyone happens to know the character conversion that would be helpful as well. We have figured out the 1/16' fraction conversions, but there are additional numbers/characters that we could use help with. Thank you to anyone that can help, Robbie. Hi, I did a quick remote session onto your computer and found that only one folder was in your File Support Path.
After performing a Reset Settings to Default and verifying that the SHX file was indeed in the font folder, we opened the drawing file and everything appeared normal. In addition we discussed the FONTALT setting which is used to pick a font for displaying text when the correct font is not found. Thank you for your time and patience on this issue. I hope this concludes the issue and I wish that you continue to frequent the forum Community with additional questions as they arise. HI, If you have the Architxt.shx font in your older release, simply COPY it from that folder to the C: Program Files Autodesk LT 2018 fonts folder. Then start your AutoCAD, open your drawing and it should appear. The is to assign a different font if your application cannot find a font specified in the drawing file.
For instance, if your Architxt.shx is not installed in your 2018 product, AutoCAD could substitute ROMANS.shx instead.

Hi John, I guess I'm having trouble finding the place where I can copy the text file in 2014 and where to copy it to in 2018. The one font file I found was a drawing file, and not the same fonts as in the Alt Text options. Those are all shx or TT. I tried going through the options/file/altfont path in Autocad, but it will not let me copy or paste from that mode.
I also filled in architxt.shx in the box in altfont, but it would not accept it. Surely there's a place either in Autocad mode or File explorer mode that I can access the shx and TT fonts? HI, Fonts are not stored in a drawing file. Please find your architxt.shx file in a location such as c: Program Files Autodesk 2014 Fonts or use the one I attached in my prior post. Place it in the c: Program Files Autodesk LT 2018 Fonts folder. Then, start AutoCAD and that font should be available unless you destroyed the path to the fonts folder. An easy way to fix the path is to.
This will also fix your FontAlt setting to default. Please select the Accept as Solution button if my post solves your issue or answers your question. I consulted with my IT guy and he suggested creating another user on my computer, inserting the font from 2014 to 2018 again, and then opening 2018 to access the drawing. The type was correct on that version. When I went back to my usual user mode, I could open the drawing I had saved in the new user mode, and the font was correct again.
But when I exited Autocad and reopened it, it had gone back to the wrong font. Does that suggest that there's a fault in my regular user profile?
How to go about fixing it?
Solution: Incorrect Folder If a font file is located in the same folder as the DWG file that uses it, AutoCAD will find it. However, the standard location for SHX fonts is in the AutoCAD Fonts folder, located in C: Program Files Autodesk AutoCAD 20xx Fonts. Missing Font If putting the missing font into the FontsĀ folder does not stop the error message, check the following:. Open the Options dialog box by typing OP at the command line. On the Files tab, expand the 'Support File Search Path' entry. Make note of the path pointing to the fonts.
This may need to be reset to default location (mentioned above). Open Windows Explorer, browse to the folder, and verify that the SHX font is in that folder. If the font is not present, place a copy of it in the folder. Close and reopen AutoCAD. The font should now appear in the Font Name dropdown menu in the Text Style dialog box. If the SHX font is still not available, try placing the font in the following folder locations as well:.
