topic Re: Company Standard Text Font(s) in AutoCAD Forum https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-forum/company-standard-text-font-s/m-p/5538608#M337541 Most other AutoCAD shops around here just use whatever is the default out-of-the-box.  That means TXT is pretty common still even though Arial has been the deault since R2010 (?).  Often times management clamps down on spending time making drawings look good.  But other times they like things to look good for the customers, if they get drawings.  Our customers get both PDF and DWG files so there is a chance I can appeal to that. We make pressure vessels for industrial refrigeration and the Oilfield. Our manager graduated not long ago with degrees in Math and Aerospace Engr.  Like other grads of the 21st Century, he has been taught to love SolidWorks (and similar) and to despise AutoCAD because of all the dumb 2D stick drawings made by people originally trained on the board.  We have all worked with them.  So I am also trying to impress him with what AutoCAD can do now.  I have told him of times I have had to explain new methods to the head designer and it blows her mind to the point of being embarrassed of not knowing what she claims she is an expert with.  Of course, she is responding with trying to downplay any new methods and we now have 2D/3D hybrid "models".  So this is my second angle for everything. Now if I can just get the hidden line Visual Style to do decent-looking hidden lines and not blank out sections of continuous line edges/profiles.
