I couldn`t change the font in 2D drawing

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM070

1. User set correct config.pro file and chose the correct font path
2. User config correct in drawing properties and set the font type
3. then reopen the drawing propertiers setting, it rollback to default setting.
Could you assist me to investigate it? user`s font couldln`t be set correctly

It is difficult to determine what the error is remotely.  Here are my thoughts:

 

  • Config.pro / File>Options>Configuration Editor
    • Set pro_font_dir to location of font or place font file in this location
    • Save config.pro in start directory
  • DTL settings / File>Prepare>Drawing Properties>Detail Options
    • default_annotation_font  (ex. bluprint.ttf)
    • Save
    • Start parts, Templates, Formats, and default DTL file should also be changed to the new font.

I don't believe this will change the font already created.  That will have to be done manually.

Thanks for your reply, I config the creo as your steps and it doesn`t work, because it will rollback to default after I change the  "default_annotation_font"  value and then close the "Detail Options" page, that`s strange.

It seems to work for me in Creo 7.0.  The only suggestion I can give is to ensure that you "Apply" the settings in the detail options then save the drawing.
