PROBLEM WITH MTEXT THAT IS DEFORMED

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello, I have your software AUTOCAD LT 2019. Problem is that I downloaded drawing from someone else and I need to work in it but when I open it I have mtexts that are enormous big and deffected because their widith is much bigger then height. I noticed that every deformed mtext have formating \W0.01. Font is arial. I can solve the problem when I click on each mtext and rechoose arial font. My problem is that is very frustrating and time consuming and I need to know is there any better solution. Is there any way to delete all formating of mtext at the same time.

Did you ask that "someone else" about it? They set it that way, they liked the look, not much you can do about it except to change it to suit your needs as you are doing right now.

in LT there is no way to override the "manual overrides and formatting" inside the MTEXT editor from the outside or automatically: if this is a dire business need you will need to subscribe to the more expensive AutoCAD software then use a 3rd party LISP called STRIPMTEXT that works quite well for the task.
