Please post back here again if the problem returns.
We've had the ROM disease appear intermittently in my office. We've had it
come and go on several different machines and nobody has ever figured out
why. We had adesk support involved for a while but nothing was ever
resolved. I don't think it's shown up since we upgraded to 2010, so maybe it
only affected 2009 and earlier. It only occured with mtext and the
romans.shx typeface. Initially it's a display issue, which is to say I open
a dwg and all the Rs, Os, and Ms look wrong, but I can save the drawing and
when somebody else opens it the letters are all back to the way they should
be. However, if I create or edit an mtext object while my machine is in this
condition, the letters actually get overridden with the wrong typeface and
the next guy sees what I'm seeing. I'm not editing the Rs, Os, and Ms to
change them, it happens automatically when I invoke the mtext editor. Dean's
fix works, but only if the machine doing the editing isn't displaying the
symptom at the time. Restarting ACA sometimes returns things to normal for a
while. It always seemed to afflict a particular workstation for a while and
then eventually disappear as mysteriously as it arrived.
