It seems there is an issue with maybe feet/inches and metric systems . or maybe something else?

On export of a drawing window (or flattened "sheet 2D") fonts get to be much larger when you look at the dwg file created. (Check with e.g. "eDrawings from Solidworks").
So much changed they are that every file has to be opened in autocad (or equivalent) and then you have to redo the font size for each and every line.

Now - thats a lot of lost productivity (and wasted hours) for you !
I know very well that autocad has its "quirks" on the issue of fonts. But it seems not to matter much what font type you use, and changing to another one of acads "native" ones does not solve the problem either.


Please look into this as this makes working in 3D and getting 2D drawing out to the customers much less of a joy than it should be.....

CU4-build660-OSX (and yes is Autocad running fine in "parallells" and XP).

Hello Birger,
As many other on this forum, I use CU professionally.
The thing is : everybody works differently...
On my side, I never use DXF or DWG for exports : only 3D (SAT, STP, IGS) and pdf for 2D.
Though I understand it can drive someone mad to have to resize text and dimensions.
Inches / metric bugs have always been sticking to this soft. Sometimes solved, and back again at the next update (i.e : hatch spacing still in inches today).
