So I have a weird situation. I opened AutoCAD Mechanical and printed. It caused my inventor .idw to start printing all my fonts / text in tiny print after this but everything on screen looked just fine and other computers can print / view everything just fine. And no matter how many times I reboot or restarting programs makes a difference. After a week of just dealing with the glitch and asking others to print for me. It fixed itself and went away... No idea why. It has happened 3 times now. This glitch doesn't happen when I use AutoCAD LT to print applications. So I've been afraid to open anything in AutoCAD Mechanical.
This time however, now my " symbol that I typed is acting strange... visually it looks centered on the numbers near it (vertically). (see image). I still can't print without the other glitch. And creating new .idw's and new text objects has no effect, they still show wrong. I had a co-worker open the files and they view and print fine. So it's just my PC... (note is doesn't effect other programs either, just inventor)
I swear AutoCAD Mechanical is replacing my font files or something (maybe just on the printer side?).... does inventor use it's own fonts? How do I check this so I can troubleshoot it further. It's driving me crazy.
Inventor: Model States is not a replacement for iParts / iAssemblies. It does not have all the same features yet and does not communicate well with our large currently in use libraries. 😞 https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-ideas/model-state-support-tabulated-parts-list/idc-p/11360616
