Hi Jay,

Personally I haven't seen such behaviour on my side.
What AutoCAD version do you use?
If it is one of supported on Catalina (2018, 2019 or 2020), try to set system variable DTTEXT=0 (the default value for it is 1).
If this will not help, then - another question:
What font you are using for text style(s) in your drawings? Have you tried to use one of standard fonts - Arial, Times New Roman?
