I opened my template file change the font style in every location I could think of and then save the template, but I still get the same results when I open a new file...ie romans instead of areial style text. ]]> Fri, 21 Mar 2008 12:45:29 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=539&PID=1478&title=change-default-text-in-dwg#1478 <![CDATA[Change default text in DWG : Yes I have it set to open our...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=539&PID=1366&title=change-default-text-in-dwg#1366 Author: Breeze104

i was able to get the Text Style to remain when opening and closing the drawings by creating a new Template file (DWT). Check and see if it is on the scroll down menu of the Text Style manager under --- Format ---- Text Styles. I am not sure how to turn it into your default text style, so you may have to scroll down to it and select it when ever you create new text]]> Tue, 04 Mar 2008 19:14:50 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=539&PID=1348&title=change-default-text-in-dwg#1348 <![CDATA[Change default text in DWG : That is what I have been trying...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=539&PID=1347&title=change-default-text-in-dwg#1347 Author: Breeze104

That is what I have been trying to do, but once i shut down the program and open it back up (after saving it to the template file) it reverts back to Romans.]]> Tue, 04 Mar 2008 18:38:03 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=539&PID=1347&title=change-default-text-in-dwg#1347 <![CDATA[Change default text in DWG : I have ABS 2006 (now MEP) and...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=539&PID=1346&title=change-default-text-in-dwg#1346 Author: dlittle

I have ABS 2006 (now MEP) and i would think it would be similar. All you have to do is go to Format -- Text Style -- then the option to change your faunt is in this area. You can apply this to a certain profile so when ever you are using that profile your default text will be what ever you changed it to. If you need more info on creating a profile let me know

Also you can create a specific Text style within the Format --- Text Style menu.

I know this may be one of those ...Duhhhhh questions, but I am new to ACADM (2008) and can't seem to figure out how to change the default text to Arial form Romans and get it to stay.

I have created a custom dwt and everything else works fine except for the default text.

What do you say O`Mighty gurus of CAD???
