Hello everyone, I need help with changing the text style of my line types, I am using Autocad LT 2012. I have this line type "-----G----" and it appears as a roman style text on one drawing but when I copy it into another drawing the text style changes into standard text style, I want it to keep it as a Roman style text. I would appreciate any help from you guys.

Here's the linetype definition for Gas linetypewithin acad.lin:
*GAS_LINE,Gas line ----GAS----GAS----GAS----GAS----GAS----GAS--
A,.5,-.2,["GAS",STANDARD,S=.1,U=0.0,X=-0.1,Y=-.05],-.25
 
The definition specifies the STYLE of "Standard". That style is in every drawing, cannot be deleted. But the user can change the font associated with Standard, and that is the font that will be used in the linetype.
