| - | ====== Dealing with missing fonts ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | ---- | ||
| - | |||
| - | When exchanging CAD drawing files, it is important to note that fonts used in a drawing file should be installed on the respective computer system. Otherwise, a processing software does not have the necessary information to be able to display and interpret fonts correctly. | ||
| - | |||
| - | This page describes how to deal with a message in #@IC_HTML@# informing you of missing fonts. | ||

| - | ==== What are fonts? ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | A →[[en:infra-convert:user:terms#font|font]] describes the appearance of characters such as letters, numbers, punctuation marks and graphic symbols. A character set comprises a stock of such character definitions and can be exchanged between computer systems as a font file (*.ttf, *.shx etc.). | ||
| - | |||
| - | Each character definition in the character set is identified by a code. By specifying the position, name of the font, the character code, font size and other properties, software can display the character. | ||
| - | |||
| - | {{ :en:infra-convert:user:schriftart_zeichensatz.png?nolink&750 |}} | ||
| - | |||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Fonts in drawing files ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | **DXF, DWG, IGES** – Drawing files in a CAD exchange format do not contain character definitions. To display them, you have to rely on fonts already being installed on the computer system. | ||
| - | |||
| - | **PDF** – Character definitions can be embedded in PDF files, so-called embedded fonts. However, for further processing, as is the case in #@IC_HTML@#, these may not be used for licensing reasons. The required fonts must therefore also be installed in this case. | ||
| - | |||
| - | If a PDF is converted into a raster graphic during import into #@IC_HTML@#, the licence restriction does not apply. Automated stamping is then no longer possible, but the representation corresponds exactly to the original. | ||
| - | \\ **See** Functions > Drawings > Import drawing > [[en:infra-convert:user:functions:drwimport#workflow|Workflow]] > Step 2b | ||
| - | |||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Step 1: Identify missing fonts ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | If a font is not found when loading a drawing file on the computer, #@IC_HTML@# falls back on substitute fonts. The substitutions often fit well, but can only reproduce the original more or less accurately enough. Substitution characters may, for example, have a different height, width, line width or position. It is also possible for a character code to represent a character that is different in meaning. If a character is not found at all, a substitute character is displayed, such as "▯" or "?". | ||
| - | |||
| - | {{ :en:infra-convert:user:schriftart_zeichensatz_ersetzung.png?nolink&750 |}} | ||
| - | |||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | |||
| - | When a replacement is made, you will be informed with a message. The name of a font searched for and the respective replacement font are displayed. Several fonts can be replaced at once. | ||
| - | |||
| - | The file name of a font you are looking for does not appear in the drawing file. However, it is usually similar; in the example, the font file could be called "cadfont1.ttf". | ||
| - | |||
| - | > **If the dialogue does not appear**, this may be because the message is suppressed by a setting. You can reactivate the message in the **Settings** menu: | ||
| - | > | ||
| - | > 1) Click on **Edit** > **Settings** in the menu bar. | ||
| - | > 2) In the "Settings" menu that opens, open the **Import** page. | ||
| - | > 3) In the **Common** group, deactivate the setting **Suppress notifications for replaced fonts**. | ||
| - | > 4) Accept the setting by clicking **OK** and carry out the import again. | ||

| - | You can view and manage fonts installed on a computer (with Windows operating system) at the following locations: | ||

| - | |||
| - | Für alle Benutzer installierte Schriftarten befinden sich standardmäßig im folgenden Verzeichnis: | ||

| - | <WRAP group> | ||
| - | <WRAP indent> | ||
| - | <WRAP column 27%> | ||
| - | C:\Windows\Fonts | ||

| - | |||
| - | </WRAP> | ||
| - | </WRAP> | ||
| - | <WRAP column 70%> | ||
| - | |||
| - | Für einzelne Benutzer installierte Schriftarten befinden sich im folgenden Verzeichnis: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <WRAP group> | ||
| - | <WRAP indent> | ||
| - | <WRAP column 57%> | ||

| - | Von CAD-Programmen mitgelieferte Schriftartdateien finden Sie meist im Installationsverzeichnis. Navigieren Sie im Dateiexplorer zum Installationsverzeichnis und suchen dort nach TTF-Dateien durch Eingabe der Suchanfrage *.ttf . | ||

| - | |||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Step 3: Install fonts ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Schriftarten sollten nach Möglichkeit für alle Benutzer installiert werden. Klicken Sie mit der rechten Maustaste auf die Schriftartdatei (oder mehrere ausgewählte Schriftartdateien) und im Kontextmenü auf **Für alle Benutzer installieren** (administrative Rechte benötigt). | ||

| - | |||
| - | Wurden alle Schriftarten hinzugefügt, sollte beim Import einer Zeichnung in #@IC_HTML@# keine Hinweismeldung mehr erscheinen und die Darstellung der Zeichen sollte korrekt sein. | ||

| - | Sollte das nicht der Fall sein, kontaktieren Sie uns. Wir unterstützen Sie gerne. | ||
