Is there a way to change the default font for "STANDARD" text style from txt.shx to some other font?
Is there a way to change the default font for "STANDARD" text style from txt.shx to some other font?
Hi
Just go into the Text Style Dialog Box and change it there.
If you use a Template file (DWT) to start New drawings set Style Name "Standard" to use the Font Name you require within that.
Have a good one, Mike
I'm actually looking for a way to change the default font at start-up with "drawing1.dwg" without using a template or manually changing the style each time.Quote:

By default Autocad uses the template drawing "acad.dwt" at start-up with "drawing1.dwg". Modifing that file is the best way to set up text and dimension styles or layers, linetypes and blocks. Is there a reason you wouldn't want to use them?

Personally I would go with Tom's suggestion, is easy to implement and maintain.....
The following Technical Documents from the Autodesk web site might be of some interest -
ID: TS47106 - Changes made to acad.dwt and acadiso.dwt are not displayed in new drawings created using Start from Scratch option
ID: TS24235 - Defining a default drawing template file
