Most of the fonts we use are shx fonts and I have checked and they are in the folders. It seems like everything works for a while and then it just decides they want to go missing. When you move a piece of text or change the text they go to simplex and the preview in the style box changes as well. The user has to restart AutoCad and everything will reset to normal. But then in a little while things will start changing.
when you say your fonts are in folders.....are you saying that they might be path-ed to a network location?and that this person is losing or changing his drive mapping and thus losing his fonts?
It's not at specific intervals of time. He said it happened 3 times this afternoon.So no, I guess I couldn't unless I worked on it for a while.
have him/her switch machines with another user for a few hours, see if the problem follows them, or attacks the replacement user too
It happened again last night before we went home and already started again this morning. Seems like it is about every hour. The user told me for now he is not adding any text, but it still messes up when he prints too.
