    <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;"How do I embed these into the dwg file so other people don't need to have these shx files on their machines?"&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;There is no way to do this as far as I know. Font files are always stored external to the DWG file (perhaps for legal reasons, but I don't really know). If you want to make sure someone receiving a copy of your DWG sees the font(s) you have used (and it is reasonable to think they would not have access to them normally), then you must transmit the font files with the DWG.&amp;nbsp; eTransmit &amp;nbsp;is AutoCAD's utility for automating this.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I assume by "other people" you are referring to people outside of your organization or who&amp;nbsp;otherwise don't have access to a shared network folder which could be used for "communal" font file storage.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you are referring to others within your "network", then it's just a matter of including the network storage location in their Support Files Search path.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have a drawing that I made that has some custom linetypes that I used custom shx files to create.&amp;nbsp; I was under the impression that once I got these linetypes into the drawing, that they were part of the drawing.&amp;nbsp; People could then copy and past them into other drawings from our legend drawing and we'd be fine.&amp;nbsp; I'm having issues where other people are getting prompted for shx files and I don't want to have all these other references they have to worry about.&amp;nbsp; How do I embed these into the dwg file so other people don't need to have these shx files on their machines?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks!&lt;BR /&gt;Ian&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>Nope.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;If you used external SHX files to create them, you have to share those external files with others too. Think of it in the same way you think of Xrefs.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Use eTRANSMIT command to correctly bundle all that your DWG file(s) needs before you send it/them to anyone.</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Is there a better way to create the linetypes?&amp;nbsp; I get xrefs but I don't want to reference anything.&amp;nbsp; Xrefs can be bound.&amp;nbsp; It seems ridiculous in design that to accomplish a custom linetype that all this extra stuff has to go with the file.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>HELP explains how to create custom simple and complex linetypes without SHX shape files.

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I believe the MKLTYPE command was the one I used but I ran into issues with the command not recognizing arcs or splines unless I used an actual defined shape.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I ended up abandoning the shapes and went with&amp;nbsp;finagling text to make the shapes instead.&amp;nbsp; Thanks for your help.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
