Loading fonts for AutoCAD 2013 for MAC

I am trying to load our office fonts “DIN” and “Universal 57” but I can’t seem to get them to show up in the text style dialog box. I have placed them in my user Library, in the computers general Library, as well as in the AutoCAD’s personal library. I have also edited the Support File Search Paths. Nothing is working. I know they are both true type fonts but could it be that they are just not compatible with CAD? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thx

Hi,

 

can you share DWG file where you see this message?

 

Looks like I don't have troubles with SHX font you attached.

I created text style with these settings:

About error message in AutoCAD: try to give the name of the text style with latin characters.
