Creo Parametric: Bold texts when symbol used.

Hi all, I'm getting bold texts on printed drawing outputs (hard print, pdf or postscript) whenever I use a symbol. See the attached picture. Does anybody know how to fix this? Regards

Hi,

in CR2 M070:

  • I opened drawing
  • I changed font to win_font
  • I created PDF using Save As command and Use TrueType Fonts option
  • I created PDF using Save As command and Stroke All Fonts option

It seems to me that the output is OK. See attachments.

I guess that the problem is related to diameter symbol. Try to remove it temporarily from the note and test PDF creation. If problem disappears, then I guess that the problem is caused by bug present in CR2 M010 (you version).

Hi,

this can be caused by color assigned to text in symbol definition.

Hi Martin,

(Not sure if I'm doing it right) I've tried going into Note Properties - Text Style and changed the colour there but seems to have no effect. Do I need to make changes on System Colors? Please shed some light.

Thanks

Here's the drawing file. Really appreciate your help!

Hi,

I cannot open the drawing, because you did not send me FORK_02.PRT model.

Hi Martin,

Yes, diameter (or any) symbol was causing this issue and you are correct. Using a default or win_font seems to fix the problem. I'm guessing this is something to do with mismatch between 'Arial' font and symbols or some sort of bug in the program.

Anyways thank you for your great help. Really appreciate it!

Hi Steven,

I'm using Creo Parametric 2.0. I tried changing Note font type to default and this fixed it for me. However, if I change back to 'Arial' which I was using, error seems to remain.

Thanks for your help!
