Text too thick when plotting on new PC

I have recently received a new computer.

I have made a fresh install of ACADE 2026 on this new computer.

 

When I  plot my schematics the texts are too thick to be readable.

It seems to be only the texts and attributes using "WD_IEC" style but I am not certain.

Only the texts are affected (not the line themselves).

 

I had the same problem on my old computer 2 years ago, but I don't remember what I did to solve it back then.

 

When I open the same DWG file on my old computer, the plot is OK.

 

I have the same options selected on both computers:

Can you help me ? This is driving me crazy.

Have you investigated this? A new PC might have different fonts entirely, and it is great that you still have access to the old one for experiments and even copying out old fonts.

Some letters appear thicker or thinner than others in PDFs when using batch plot in AutoCAD Electric...
