Hi, 

 

I'm trying to scale a block to 1/3. There is text objects in the block, some of are rotated 90° some of are not. 

When the block scaled, text objects which are rotated 90° become bold and aliased. 

They also bold and aliased on plot preview and pdf. 

 

I've added screenshots of both dwg and pdf documents. 

 

Anyone knows the solution? 

 

Thanks,

looks like that's just how AutoCAD displays the smaller size text font.

the pdf attached looks fine...here's a screenshot zoomed in closer onto the pdf

Yes, but when you zoomed out it seems like this. It's still looks like a bug.

As long as the pdf looks good when it prints that's the key. This has always been the case with how AutoCAD deals with filled True Type Fonts on the graphics screen.

As far as I know, this has been a problem since the introduction of True Type fonts.

This post claims to solve it.
