The font is not supported by the printer.  In the print settings, select "Stroke all fonts" on the Printer tab.  This will send your font to the printer as lines, not text.

    Well, maybe, but it depends.  It's a little difficult to understand the original question.  If you are using Windchill and are using the "distiller" to automatically create PDF's and you're trying to print those, then it may instead be the settings set up in the distiller.  I know Arial is a font normally supported by the printer, but our "distiller" was set up to change the fonts on the dwg to be some really ugly font.  So, if I print that PDF I get an ugly dwg, but if I make a PDF in session and print that, it comes out the way I want.
