    Default Another missing font?

    A while back I posted a problem saying I didn't have the sansserif font. Someone was kind enough to give it to me. http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=25060

    Now I seem to be having trouble with another font, not sure which one, I think it is the GDT font. Anyway it is the font that controls the geometric tolerancing symbols.

    When I issue the tolerance command and try to pick the symbols I need, they do not display properly (see picture)

    Can anyone shed some light on why my fonts are disappearing? Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem?

    Thanks.

    Hi

    Check to see if GDT.shx is in your AutoCAD Search Path, if it is not, place it there (if you can not find GDT.shx you will find it on your AutoCAD installation CD).

    Have a good one, Mike

    I checked there earlier and didn't see it. I was hoping to avoid having to reinstall. If anyone out there would like to post or email me the .shx I'd appreciate it! rpurnell@rtpcompany.com
