Ugly truetype fonts (non smoothed, jaggy) in Autocad 2016

Hello,

 

Does anyone know why in Autocad 2016 the truetype fonts show really bad? They are not smoothed at all. They look very jaggy and non regularly bold.

It happens in model and paperspace equaly.

 

I checked that the text has the Z=0, the DVIEW command shows camera target on 0. But since the problem happens also in paperspace i suspect it has to be a system setting, maybe display drivers or a global variable?

 

Attached you will find an example from my paperspace - the top text is located in modelspace and shown through a viewport, the bottom text is directly in paperspace. Same issue.

 

BTW, I also switched to Windows 10.

Hi,

 

have you tried to create a new drawing and a text? Does that also look not smooth?

If it's drawing dependet then upload the drawing so we can look into it (at least the objects with the text).

Check your text width  factor. It looks like it is less than 1.

This is probably caused by the visual style you use. See:

Steve, that was it!

 

 

Aparently if the font has the Width factor different than 1 Autocad would not smooth the fonts. If it is 1 the the fonts look great. Misteries of AC...
