locate Engineering.shx

Hello,

I am using Archicad 17 and my model consists of multiple hotlinks. Sometimes when I open one of these hotlinks, it asks me to "locate ENGINEERING.shx". Any idea what this is and where I can find this file? I've searched for it but couldn't find anything..

Thanks!

That is an Autocad Font that you are missing in a DWG.

Lots of old discussion on this and tips for how to get copies of the fonts via free AutoCAD viewer apps:
