CS1 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 In my VW file I have the font set to "arial" with no "styles" In my VW worksheet I have selected all cells and changed to "arial" When I view the edit mode of the worksheets all the text appears to be arial but when I exit some cells are showing as like "arial narrow" or something. When I edit the format of that particular cell it says it is arial. Does anybody know why this is? Quote Link to comment
VWUser2335 Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 I have had a similar problem after installing a new font. Some text and worksheet text changed to the new font. I would change it back to Arial, but the next time I opened the file it would have reverted. The only solution I found was to disable the new font. Quote Link to comment
CS1 Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 (edited) On an earlier post I saw there was a problem with using characters like ? and ?, and the advise was to delete that font. The only problem is its Arial, the standard one which comes with XP. Every other program I have uses it and the basic operating system uses it as well. Anyone got any advise?

Vectorworks, Inc Employee Hugues Posted July 1, 2008 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted July 1, 2008 Do you get the same result with GDI+ Imaging ON and OFF ? I understand from your post that the problem is with this specific cell only. What happens when you clear the cell and reformat it ? Can you reproduce this problem consistently from a new worksheet ?

CS1 Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 The problem with the ? and ? characters occurs in all cells and all worksheets, and if I turn on/off appears normal. I need GDI on all the time, is cumbersome to have to turn on/off all the time just so text appears normal The problem with the odd font for the text is random has occured a couple of time in different files and different worksheets, seems to occur when changing the style (EG bold, italic etc or colour text) Quote Link to comment
