Expressviewer display of TTF fonts HUGE problem?

[Anonymous]

I have a single .dwf file, created as classic .dwf ver 3.1. The TTF
fonts in this drawing are displaying HUGE for some reason!! making the
file unreadable in latest version of expressviewer. Could it just be my OS?
Using Expressviewer
NT4 sp6
IE 5.00.2199

Could someone check the .dwf file for me if the file is readable in
Expressviewer, or if it is a "feature" that may need to be addressed?
I have tried to placed the .dwf in cf.
0000g003.dwf

The .dwf file views fine using classic WHIP! 3.1 viewer.

I couldn't open it at all. Tried EV, VVE & Arch studio. Maybe something got hosed in the
upload to CF?

That one opens. It looks okay in VVE, but bad in Express and AS. Here are some screen
shots:

Thanks Joe,
GREAT screenshots...
I should have put somthing together like this myself! Very Nice work!

At least I know that I am not crazy, and that my Good Ol' NT4 is not the
culprit. I get the same result, except I do not have AStudio... (I did
not even think of viewing with that product)

Does anyone know if there is a bug report procedure, or if it will be
noted from this group? Would this also be helpfull info to post on the
AS news group?
It appears to be a problem with the True Type font "arial" that is being
used. Very strange.

Which version of AutoCAD did you create the DWF file?
Does the non-classic DWF display the same way (after all, EV is
supposed to be all about the newer version and all)?

We use TTF and dot hatch a lot. Haven't seen this in any files during my
testing, all dwfs created with ADT 3 (dwf5) or ADT 3.3 using both "release
dwf5" and new dwf6 "plotter" settings.

Finding dwfs are far smaller than PDF (3-10 times) due to dot hatch content.

Yes, I got the same thing with the latest beta build. It loaded fine but as
soon as I scrolled the mouse to zoom in, I say the "crazy text". Was this
logged...?
