Fat Text.

Why is intellicad texts fatter (i.e. bloated) as compared to autocad? Can I do anything with Intellicad's settings to get normal looking fonts.

The texts look bloated when I plot/print.

newmanila,

You need to check your line thickness for your text color in the plot dialog.

Thanks for your reply.
I think my problem has nothing to do with plot settings. The fonts look fat on screen even before I plot. Even if I assign a very narrow line thickness for plotting, the texts still come out bloated.

I can send you images comparing the two programs for reference.

Thanks again.

You may want to check and see if IntelliCAD is finding the font file. It may be substituting another font in its place.
