The following list shows the fonts contained in the default mapping file. The most common fonts in technical drawing are Arial, Tahoma, simplex, roman, ISOCP, ISOCPEUR, Comic Sans ect. This improves the visual fidelity of the drawing files. When the drawing files are opened in AutoCAD, the exact fonts are used - no substitution of default fonts is required. When you save SOLIDWORKS documents as DXF or DWG files, you can use the drawFontMap.txt mapping file to reverse map any SOLIDWORKS or Windows True Type fonts back into AutoCAD SHX or True Type fonts. In options window click on files tab and expand support file search path you will see location where font is installed. To locate default folder for SHX font click on application menu and select options.
#ENGLISH FONTS FOR AUTOCAD INSTALL#
The SOLIDWORKS or Windows True Type fonts are also available to use in SOLIDWORKS original documents. This font is AutoCAD specific and in order to install it you need to copy it in existing folder of AutoCAD fonts. (To find the \Fonts folder, in the Run window, type %systemroot%\fonts.) If the True Type font is not available, the SOLIDWORKS drawing document default font is used.
The fonts are mapped using the default mapping file located at \Data\drawFontMap.txt. SOLIDWORKS has added True Type fonts to support the most popular AutoCAD fonts. SOLIDWORKS accurately displays AutoCAD ® fonts when you import DXF/DWG drawing files, even if AutoCAD is not installed on your computer.
