Does anyone know where I may be able to find the %%? or ALT+ "guide" for the
archd font? I have been searching for ever in Google but to no avail and I
am getting tired of the old "type it and find out" method, although I did
manage to get the fractions that way.
cut and paste this to the command line...then type character. you could
also save it in a text file and name it character.lsp
I found this on cadalyst. thanx Jeff!!

Thanks for the response but unfortunately I am using 2006 LT at work.

Open the attached dwg and redefine the style to use the font you want to
see.

I have been looking to find away to get the character codes of shx and other cad fonts in autocad. I found old posting with some lsp . I hope you can help me. I am using autocad 2010.
Another question how can I make a font in autocad.... Right to left as in Arabic.
That's a non-trivial exercise. first you'll need the .shp version of the .shx. then you'll need to tweak the vecror codes in the shp, and recompile to a new .shx file.
Better off to look for a TTF font that already does what you need.
And by the way, what exactly are the tweakd you want to make?
I have Arabic font shapes files in autocad. Some letters are not found or cannot be used through the normal keyboard characters. I was hoping that i can assign a shift letter key with a letter so i can use easily instead of the %% xxx.
Regarding TTF fonts will they work even Arabic font? because windows Arabic fonts cannot be used in autocad.
Another question can you teach me (or direct me to anywhere) how to create fonts for autocad.
Thanks for taking the time to read and help. Best regards
I am trying to replace a font character asigned to one of the keystrokes by another font character in that same keystroke. ( example lets say I am trying to replace the (_) underscore charactor in the ksystroke into the (+- over each other) plus minus signs on top of each other charactor on that same keystroke).
You need the source SHP file from the author: there is no way around it. Who'se the author of that font? Who knows, start a web search and be prepared to part with money for the SHP font.
If you have installed the express tools in AutoCAD start express tools help and search for "dumpshx.exe". With that utility you can convert shx to shp.
Never tried myself, but other users told me that it worked.
