Font issues: no separation between letters in Autocad 2016

Hi. I use the font DIN Light, for my general text annotations. When I used Autocad 2015, I had no trouble at all. Now that I use 2016, the text looks all tight, without altering its tracking. But when I "move" the text, it looks normal.. Is only when I stop "moving them" when again, they all tight together.. Its not a problem of stretching the box or anything.. Its just that font type. I cant figure out how to correct that.. Please help...

Try stretching the text box

Ok, can you check the font width?

Is that maybe set to too high a value

Hi,

 

>> I use the font DIN Light

I don't have the font and I don't have the drawing, so it's guessing and questions:
How did you create that text? Copy & paste from another problem and this is now a OLE-object?

Is that a block, are that attributes or multi line attributes?
Are that single lines each with a TEXT or are they MTEXT-objects?

If MTEXT is the font assigned within the MTEXT or do you have defined a text-STYLE and used this without any internal style-overriding?

If it's well structured there should exist one or more styles using that font ... what happens if you change these styles to any other true-type font like "Arial"?

 

>> When I used Autocad 2015, I had no trouble at all. Now that I use 2016

Have you installed the latest service pack for 2016?

Is it the same workstation or is AutoCAD 2016 now running on another computer or a new operating system setup?
