I placed proportional text on my board, and I realized when I had them fabricated that they were outputted as vector text. Is there a setting I can use to change that, I would like the text to come out proportional. Is there also a way to change fonts?

Hello @Mschindl,
Not to my knowledge. Apparently the creation of Gerber files, convert automatically the text in eagle in Vector font. No way to have Proportional font.
I used this follow link "SVG to image" to convert SVG image (image of texts with custom font) to polygon into eagle to put personal font.
It a bit time consuming, specially for cosmetic thing, but it works. I added on my PCB logo and texts in Font Arial for example with this method.
It's the only way that I found who works for me:
Have a nice day!

Hello, I don't understand the reason to have other font if in the gerber output only Vector are created. Has this font limitation already been resolved? Tks
Hi @rtscapovilla ,
I hope you're doing well. Fusion 360 now allows the gerber export to use any font, but this hasn't been backported into EAGLE.
Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.
Best Regards,
