Font Problem

For some reason the font is changing in Text and dimensions in a .plp file. What could be the problem?

See if this happens if you change the font. I've just noticed a similar problem when we plotted using the helvetica font. Although we didn't solve the problem, we worked around it by changing the font to arial.

We use Arial Arabic, but now is automatically changed to Algerian Western and @Simsun Western. I start a new .plp and copy/paste the whole project 2 times but it works fine for a few days and start the problem again. Right now the project are in a construction documents phase and the copy/paste is not a good idea. I will try to save as pln and convert to .plp again and see what happened

As far as I know font data is not saved with Automatic Saves. For this reason, if your file crashes and you open the Autosaved copy of the file to get back as much of your work as possible it can happen that some font information is lost.
Hope this helps some.

Thank you Eduardo, I format my PC and reinstall AC, now shows windows font only. I will try the Patch for the other computers and recommend to everybody to use the same font style. Right now, everything is getting fixed.
