GD&T Symbols

When I use my GD&T Tolerances instead of symbols there are letters where my sybols should be. Is there
some sort of setting for this? I am using metric format and ACAD 2002.

Hello, I have the same problem on my ACAD 2002 SP1, and I also have Mech Desktop 6 SP3, and Inventor 6 SP1 on this machine.

How do I get my GDT symbols back in ACAD?

If you are working on a machine that does not have
Inventor loaded on it, copy the AIGDT & AMGDT fonts from the Inventor
machine.

Make sure the ACAD and MDT are seeing the AIGDT and
AMGDT fonts.  They are truetype fonts, you may have to make a textstyle
with them for ACAD apps.

Hi, how do I make sure that they are not seeing the AIGDT and AIGDT fonts. And I do have a unique text style that calls romans?

Inventor creates all text styles using Truetype
fonts.  When the IV file is translated to AutoCAD, the AutoCAD text styles
are substituted and the GD&T symbols do not translate properly.  You
either have to edit them manually to make them read properly or create a text
style (using a Truetype font) named the same as it is in Inventor.
