Text appear massive when opening a dwg file (autocad 2025)

[christian_feghaliJ94MM]

When I open any cad file on my computer txt appears massive. this happens only on my computer with any file. If I open the same file from any other computer the text appears to be normal.

Hi,

can you share with us here the CAD dwg file?

I sent you the file I screened shot from.

But it happens to any file I try to open

Where is your issue exactly? Nothing wrong here in your file

Have you installed the 2025.1 Update yet? ABOUT command in your AutoCAD will confirm what you have installed. If not, get it from your Autodesk Account Page here https://manage.autodesk.com/cep/#products-services/updates
Restart your PC afterwards please.

If that did not help... Set GFXDX12 variable to 0 (that's a zero): a restart of your AutoCAD2025 is required for it to take effect.

If still no relief then start GRAPHICSCONFIG command and change the 2D Display Settings pulldown from "advanced mode" to one of the other choices.

If all else fails, then turn off Hardware Acceleration as a last resort.

Would you try to open the attached file i attached here?

[christian_feghaliJ94MM]

nothing changed with LWDISPLAY

[christian_feghaliJ94MM]

I had no update to install.

setting the GFXDX12 variable to 0 worked.

Thank you

THANK YOU!!!!! I had the same text issue with any of my autocad file. Tried setting GFXDX12 to 0 and it helped!
