Text printing larger than it is on screen

[hugodellinger]

Hello, 

I am having the same problem with a particular font I installed lately...

I will share with you a screenshot of what it looks like in model , layout and exported pdf 

As you can see the text when exported in pdf gets a little bit bigger and bolder and I have absolutely no clue why this happens. It's kind of annoying since I have to print to pdf then adjust my texts in my model and hope my adjustments are OK since I can't see how it's gonna be without printing into pdf again 

Help please !

Hi @hugodellinger ,

Please specify also macOS installed on your Mac.

Have you installed the latest Update to AutoCAD 2022?

[hugodellinger]

Hi, I'm on Mac OS 13.5.2 Ventura

And for the Autocad Version :

@hugodellinger ,

You have to try to install the Update I mentioned above. It seems to me that some problems with TTF fonts were fixed since the initial release.

Hi @hugodellinger ,

I installed fonts you provided and opened your drawing:

All texts look like in your PDF.

Are you sure that you shared the correct drawing?

[hugodellinger]

Hi thank you for your time, 

Yes I am sure it is the correct drawing, it has been doing the same thing on multiple files/drawings with this particular font.. (never used it before but a client requested it) 

In fact they look the same on your screenshot , you must be right about that update

Hi,

your screenshot is from ACAD or?

But I though we are are talking about the issue in PDF??

[maxim_k]

Hi @cadffm ,

Yes, the screenshot is from AutoCAD and it shows the same text as in the resulting PDF, but it is different from the screenshot shown by OP.

I opened his drawing in AutoCAD for Mac 2024 (all updates installed).

[hugodellinger]

Hi, yes the screenshot is from Autocad , the problem is that the text is showing differently in the pdf then in Autocad 

[cadffm]

"the same text as in the resulting PDF,"

I was missing this part in your post and the screenshot(Acad) was irrelevant.

Thx for the explanation.

Please upload your PDF too (for me).

Here is the PDF and DWG file

Hey Hugo,

you already shared your files.

Replied to Maxim

I quoted Maxims answer

and he didn't share the PDF.

I don't know why you thinking I am talking with you at this moment. 😄

True, I was wondering why you were asking them again...

Fair enough my bad
