AUTOCAD LT MAC bold fonts no longer appear in PDF prints

timothyM6QPB — Sat, 13 Mar 2021 00:00:12 GMT

I have a Macbook pro running Autocad LT 2020 and all my PDF exports recently stopped displaying Bold fonts. I have tested it on many fonts, including, Century Gothic, Helvetica, Avenir and Arial. I have tried many setting changes based on searching the forums. I've tried the DWGtoPDF driver as well as the other stock PDF drivers found on my computer. The only thing that works is changing the make text geometry setting but this is not preferred since it used to work without this and this balloons the file sizes unnecessarily.

Please help! Thanks,

Tim

Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi Tim!

This issue was resolved only for 2021 version of AutoCAD LT for Mac with this update:

AutoCAD LT for Mac 2021.1.1 Hotfix

README English

If you are on subscription - and I believe you are, because there is no other official way to use Autodesk product for now - you need to upgrade to 2021 version.
