Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi Saovry sok,

Sorry, but i'm not aware of Khmer input methods, so I don't know how you use keyboard when you write in Khmer on computer.
But I think in AutoCAD you need special font for using Khmer language in annotations:

Hi @Anonymous,

I see that you are visiting as a new member to the AutoCAD for Mac forum. Welcome to the Autodesk Community!

I downloaded a font with this name but it only shows Roman characters. Can you share the font you are using so I can try it on my Mac?

Hi John,

>>>>>I downloaded a font with this name but it only shows Roman characters
Have you added Khmer keyboard in macOS System preferences?
Maybe I'm not correct, but I think you can get Khmer characters only if you are using Khmer keyboard.

Hi @maxim_k,

It took a reboot for some reason. I can now enter Mtext in KHMER and the characters match when I print to PDF. The problem that @Anonymous is experiencing might be specific to the font definition or the specific characters being used.

Perhaps @Anonymous cna share the font being used and a sample drawing.

But the second video on the page you referred shows that you have to install font with FontBook, but not to resource/fonts/ttf inside AutoCAD application folder.
Have you tried that?

I'm just regular AutoCAD user as you, so I cannot answer your question.
Maybe some from developer team may answer you.
