    Hi Jim!

    I saved the 2 files at my desktop.
    I opened my windows fonts menu and installed this *.pfm font.
    I copied the two files to the location --- autocad fonts.

    But when i open the file it says:
    take [simplex.shx] instead [te______.pfb] ...
    So this don´t help me in acad2004lt.

    Any other ideas how to install this font?

    Thanks Jim! - greetings from austria! peter

    You can't use .pfb fonts in current versions of AutoCAD. Autodesk removed
    that capability along about R13.

    You can, however, "compile" those .pfb files into .shx equivalents. Details
    in HELP.

    Sorry, I missed the fact you're using LT. There's no COMPILE command in LT.

    Perhaps you could get someone with a full AutoCAD version to compile it for
    you.
