Accessing new font

Hi all,

I have created a new font style.
I put the .shx file in the .../font folder to access the font thro' the font dialog box (with STYLE command).
But, my new font style does not get listed.
The font folder path is the same path as mapped in the support files path of options.

What should I do to access my new font style through STYLE command?

Any help much appreciated.

In Acad.lsp, acaddoc.lsp or startup lisp program add the following line -
(command "_.load" "NewFontStyleName")
substitute your font style name for NewFontStyleName
Then you can use the style command to setup a text style

 

I think he only needed to restart Acad for the font to show up. You won't
see a new font in the style dialog if Acad is running when you add the font.

It shouldn't be necessary to reload the same font in every single drawing.
He needs to fix whatever the problem is, once and for all, rather than
applying a permanent workaround.

 

Thanks Alan and Tom,

I restarted AutoCAD session and got the new .shx shown from Style command.

Thanks for solutions.
