The two door blocks attached have text fields that update as the dimensions of the door are changed. As you can see, the font is different in each one, and I have no idea why. I have compared properties and so far found no differences. I have tried the STYLE command, but the font in the block on the left is somehow resistant to being changed. I want the text to appear as it does in the block on the right, Standard style, with simplex.shx font.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

That was peculiar. I could not find any overrides.
However, I opened the block on the left (24x72) with the Block Editor.
I edited the text object with the Text Editor. The text appeared like the block on the right.
Closed MText Editor without making any other changes.
Closed Block Editor and saved changes.
Text now matches. Again, that was peculiar.
Thanks for looking into it. I just discovered that if I tweak the width parameter a couple of times and refresh, it returns back to Simplex font. Weird. 😕
@pete592 I'm as stumped as Jberns is, but I have to ask
Why are you using two separate multiline text items for the height and width of your windows?
You can put multiple fields in one multiline text item

Noted. The two separate text entities are residual from the previous version of this block. We originally had them separated so that, if necessary, we could reposition each one with a point parameter and stack them to save space when the drawing area became too cluttered. This was later deemed unnecessary, the point parameters were removed, but we didn't bother to combine them into one text item. LOL
