Same Font Style - Different Output
« on: July 30, 2009, 08:20:09 PM »
The 2 font styles are EXACTLY the same, and i have used STRIPMTEXT to delete any internal formatting within the editor and theyre still different.....
If i copy/paste into a new MT is comes in as the correct font....
The bold font is the incorrect one.....

Any ideas as to why its coming up differently? All input greatly appreciated....

It happens normally when someone has changed the Standard style from txt to arial.

that IS indeed what seems to be changed on this drawing......but the font style in question is called ARIAL BOLD, why would the STANDARD style be interfering with it?

Is the text at Z=0?  If not, try moving it there.

set texted to notepad and see what the resulting text looks like. MText is notorious for leaving legacy artifacts in the text string.
