Opening an AutoCAD 2000 format file.

Loading Modeler DLLs.
Substituting [ROMAB___.TTF] for [romb____.pfb].
Substituting [SANSS___.TTF] for [sas_____.pfb].

Regenerating model.

I just reinstall AutoCAD 2000,last time I never seen "Substituting...etc",my
question is why displayed as like that,what meaning it,can you help
me,thanks

 

Yes - it means that autocad cannot find ROMAB___.TTF, SANSS___.TTF or
SANSSBO_.TTF files in your font sub-directory. You will have to do a search for
those files and copy them into your font sub-directory OR use other fonts.

 

Hi Walt, and that mean AutoCAD automatic changed type font from
[romb____.pfb] to [ROMAB___.TTF],is it true?.

 

Yes - when autocad cannot find a font that is listed in a file, then it will try
to substitute another font. That is the reason I have an alternate font named as
a substitute in my acad.lsp file.

 

Is it just me or does AutoCAD have a difficult (meaning realllly slow) time
regeneration TTF?

 

I don't think so. I use Arial.ttf and works fine.
