preservin font type and sizes when exporting pln to dwg/dxf

[Hobbesnb]

I am trying to export a text heavy pln into a dwg, but i don't know how to preserve the fonts. When i open up the dwg in autocad, the text reverts to a default font rather than the pln font. How do i set up the translator and .shx so that i can transfer fonts accurately?

Don't use SHX, use TTF in AutoCAD too.

Specify the style used AFTER opening the PLN in AutoCAD with the same font you used in ArchiCAD. It should work.

Also, in the Translator, specify the font conversion - that will work provided you have the DWG with the style already defined.

can you explain that process in a little bit more detail? I am quite unfamiliar with autocad. Thanx.
