Pop up a dialog box if a font is substituted

    I just upgrade all our office computers. I have over 800 TTF fonts in my
    database file that I had back from NT4.0 days that I used to install on each
    computer. I really dont want to do that to all these new computers. I can
    install them as we find which ones we need.

    I was wondering if its possible to create a pop up block when opening a
    drawing and autocad substitues a font. Even if the pop-up is just generic,
    it will get the user to scroll up and find which font(s) are missing.

    Thanks.

    If you set FONTALT to none, Autocad wille ask the user to select an
    substituting font.
    See for more info in Autocad help, because this depends on the drawing
    version.
