Unable to set default annotation font to Romans__.ttf

[svmsudhir]

We are using Creo 7.0.1.0 and our custom CREO files like config.pro, .DTL, Start part/asm, Drawing templates are kept at OneDrive location.

All users having read access to this location and fetching files from here. (used environment variables)

In CONFIG the font directory is set to “C:\Windows\Fonts” and in DTL “default_annotation_font” is set to “romans__.ttf”.

This configuration is working good for all existing users and we were adding new users as they join and also working as expected.

but recently few new users (not all new) are facing issue in setting up the default font to “romans__.ttf”.

when these users open existing drawing or create new drawing the font is not our standard font and shows font name “AS IS”

We have tried setting up the font from drawing detail option where value present was “font.ndx” we applied “romans__.ttf”, after applying font when we reopen the drawing option the font is again set to “font.ndx”.

Don’t know why this is happening, is there new patch applied or something to Creo 7.0.1.0 or anything?

Please let us know if any one knows solution for this.

Thanks

Hi,

my guess >>> romans__.ttf is not installed on specific computers (file is copied into C:\Windows\Fonts, only).

I do not understand why font directory is set to C:\Windows\Fonts when you are using non-Windows font romans__.ttf.

Suggestion >>> create C:\Creo_font directory, save romans__.ttf into it and set font directory to C:\Creo_font

Thanks @MartinHanak for replying,

Font romans__.ttf is installed in C:\Windows\Fonts using option 'install for all users'.

We are having large user base here, we preferred to use the windows standard folder for fonts instead of creating separate folder on every machine.

The current structurer is working good for all users except 2-3 new users.

Thanks,
