    Is there a way to load this font into my system so that I do not have this error every time I open this drawing? I seem to remember something about loading fonts, but not enough to help me.

    Thanks,
    Chuckyx

    Do you have the font? Then just put it in the same directory where all your
    other .SHX fonts are, unless it is a TrueType font, then you must install
    it via the O/S.

    AutoCAD vector fonts (and shape files) will have a .SHX file extension.
    Windows TrueType fonts will have a .TTF file extension.

    If you do not have the font, then you will continue to get that message
    unless you get it -or- set up the FONTALT system variable which will
    substitute a font of your choice for any missing font.

    Thanks for your help. Used Fontalt Variable to assign it to a different font. Worked great. :)
