@ symbol in font names

[Ed Jobe]

I do have the "Batang" font and have no any problems with it. Did you add (install) any fonts not shipped with Windows or AutoCAD?

They aren't actual fonts, but some pseudo reference created by Office. If you look at a font listbox in acad, (e.g. in the STYLE dialog), you see listed both Batang and @Batang.

No. As I said I don't have & don't see @Batang in my AutoCAD (including Style dialog).
And that is why I think cadtag might have installed custom fonts and this may be the real cause.

I have a dozen fonts that show the "@" prefix in acad's style manager but not in other software or in Explorer.
One is Arial Unicode MS. All the others are noted as either Korean or Han (Chinese) and all of them come, as standard, with Windows 7.
So, it's acad's handling of them that is different from everything else.

I haven't added any fonts and I'm in the same position as John. Its possible that different versions of acad on different systems handle the fonts differently so that it works properly on some systems and not on others. Do you have Office installed? That's the only clue I have so far.

Yes, I have MS Office 2010.

hmm...that just muddies the water. Does your registry list the fonts in the location I noted above?

language version of Windows, MSOffice, and Acad? mine are all english -- and since it looks as though affected fonts include extra character sets......

I created a little app to list the installed fonts on your pc.

It can't be checked because the access to registry is prohibited by the bloody IT guys.
However, I am very sure the installations of Office, AutoCAD have altered the font locations.
My PC works just fine, unfortunately, in the IT guy hands.

You are probably right.
And this was why I asked the OP if he/she had installed other fonts.
