All I can say is don't use ACAD to design PCB's. It's a drafting tool not a
layout tool.

Subject:        [DC] Font styles in Gerber Data?

Hi all!

I am using ACADLT95 to layout PCBs.  I then import the data into PCGerber2
(CAM350).

All of the text font information is lost.  I know there is a way to map the
fonts, but is there a standard font style(s) universal to all CAM systems?
 I can then use that font and no longer need to worry about mapping it from
ACADLT to PCGerber or in the translation from my gerber to the package that
my PCB fabricator uses.


Sincerely,

Craig M. Lang, Engineer
