fontalt.fmp |
Note:
- This system variable specifies the font mapping file for missing fonts.
- When a replacement is defined in the fontalt.fmp file, it is only applied if the original font is missing. BricsCAD® already includes some suggested replacements in this file.
- If a font is missing and no replacements are defined in the default.fmp or fontalt.fmp files, BricsCAD® uses the simplex.shx, which is set by default by the FONTALT system variable.
- It is recommended to always use the original font to maintain a consistent visual appearance across different platforms. In addition, it is recommended to choose fonts that support the language in which the text is written.
