Hello there!

I`ve add the new fonts in Windows 10.
After installation when you trying to choose these fonts and write something..
You can spot empty blocks instead your newly added font.

How can we fix that?

What fonts are they?
Are they from a reputable source or just something you found on the internet?
Is the problem in Archicad itself or in the PDFs that you print.
Is the problem with all characters, or just some?
Are they True Type fonts?

Have you tried the fonts in a different program?

The fonts are "Avenir Bold" and "Avenir Medium Italic".
No they aren`t. They were downloaded from "unknown" sites.
ArchiCAD is legit. I`m sure about that. PDF works nice.

The main problem always appears when i`m attempting to write something in text field by this font.
And it happends only with this two fonts "Avenir Bold" and "Avenir Medium Italic".

I`m sure that they aren`t a true type fonts.

Yes.
Any other default Microsoft programs works really nice with it.
Nothing strange happends there.

That is fine and I will leave this topic here as it may help others.
It is a solution I probably would not have thought of.
Thanks for posting back.
