Hi everyone,
I'm having an issue when exporting files from Archicad to AutoCAD. After opening the exported drawing in AutoCAD, the text appears scrambled – its position changes (I use ISOCPEUR font). This can cause significant readability problems in the documentation.
Has anyone encountered this issue before? Is there a specific setting in the Translator that needs to be adjusted to ensure the text is transferred correctly? What are the best practices for exporting to avoid these errors?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hi,
You could try changing/ checking the anchor point of the text box.
If it is set to one corner, maybe autocad will asume the anchor point is the text centre and this is why you have this offset.

Ok, this method works for some texts, but there's still an issue—the line spacing (including enters and spaces) is larger than in Archicad. This would require recreating the texts from scratch, with separate text elements for each entry, for example, in a legend where there are gaps between texts.
