PROBLEM TO DISPLAY HEBREW FONTS

[Anonymous]

When I'm opening some plans I can't read hebrew at all: I just can see the equivalent letters in english and with mirror effect.

I do have hebrews fonts in Fonts folder.

Thanks!

Hi VONUFE,

Welcome to the Autodesk Community!

I am sorry to hear that you are having problems with your font. Can you attach one or two of the SXH or TTF files as well as a sample drawing? I would be happy to take a look and see if I can find a solution for you.

OTF or TTF fonts? AutoCAD can do nothing with OTF fonts.

TTF fonts need to be installed in Windows, otherwise they would display: are you also getting an error message about missing fonts when you open these files?
Here is how you install TTF fonts in AUtoCAD https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/Typography/TrueTypeInstall.aspx

I'm just trying to read the texts in my .dwg file.  I installed some .shx fonts but also didnt work...

No error message appears!

Thanks for helping!

HI @Anonymous,

I opened your drawing and typed ST for Style. This opens the Text Style window.

In all the Styles you have defined, I don't see the fonts you sent me.

The fonts that the drawing is looking for are:

CAES-L$.shx

Techno_M.shx

Hebtxt.shx

MIryl.shx

Oron.shx

Sivan_M.shx

HEB.txt

Techno.shx

Do you have all of these fonts on your system? If so, and you still have the problem, please attach those to the thread so I can try to duplicate the problem on my side.

I had not realized that there are so many types of Fonts in Hebrew...

I installed these specific Fonts e worked!

Thank you!

I have the same problem, tried some methods you mentioned in the forum but couldn't solve it. It shows "???" although all the fonts are in the system.

I'm attaching my file, thanks for any help!

Did you actually read the post that you are replying to my friend? They are missing fonts, your file is missing fonts too, in your case ORON-1.SHX and TECHNO.SHX.

They are missing on your computer I guess... I think I have them in the correct folder, because they appear as if they are installed in the Autocad interface:

Share those font files here if you want anyone to help you out with your own posted DWG file... .

I have the same problem of venufe .. I have a mac  ans I upload the font needed in the files font but i still see the text in english and mirror and when i open the file they say shx missing. I did the same manipulation in computer with windows it works I see the text in hebrew but with my mac I don't succeed. 

Maybe I need to do something inside the file autocad ? 

can you help me ?

Hi,

>> I have the same issue.

The process was to start command _STYLE, inside this dialog look for which fonts are missing and install these fonts.

What did you try from these steps?

Same issue. I have Hebrew fonts but they do not show in the DWG. What to do?

[pendean]

>>>... but they do not show in the DWG...<<<
What does that mean please? Or do you just need to turn on/thaw all layers the zoom/pan around to find them?
