Problem with my title block - Need immediate solution I'm using MAC

Hello, 

I have joined in a organisation where I'm the only Mac user. They are using a title block which is being used and followed by more than 50 people. I have to add client logos to submit the files. there is a issue in the title block, when I open the cad file it is showing in a wrong format, to make it simple I can say I have my files in windows showing in Arial but when I open in Mac it is showing romans. (the text style is same "title block") but not working out. 

 

My people recommend to change to Windows for this reason which I'm not interested. Looking for a immediate support on this. Please let me know. 

 

Attached all the regarding files about this issues.

In the dwg you posted the style title block isn't using Arial it is using Calibri Light. Either install that font on your computer or try changing the style to Arial from Calibri

What happens when you initially open the dwg? Do you get a message saying cannot find font (or something similar to that)? Fonts are stored locally on the user's hard drive (that means you and your Mac).

 

If AutoCAD can't find the font on your computer then another font will be substituted to stand in for the missing font. I'm guessing you don't have Arial on your computer (or AutoCAD doesn't know where to look for Arial on your hard drive).

Hey mate, thanks. It really worked out for me. You were right, the text style was wrong. Once I changed it to Arial it is working fine. 

 

Moving forward in Autocad in years of experience I have complicated and started thinking in different way. But the answer was very simple to fix. Thanks a lot and it really mean a lot to me.
