 We are doing workshare with other country. The problem was occured when we had converted the drawings from Autocad to Microstation V8i. While doing the conversion from DWG to DGN, one of the autocad font &amp;#39;INTL ISO.SHX&amp;#39; is transfered into Microstation</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: Conversion Issue DWG (Autocad) to DGN (Microstion)</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/298780?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 09 Sep 2014 12:55:57 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:86db1985-0d2b-46b1-8e24-fd1d35ceb064</guid><dc:creator>Jon Summers</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote user=&amp;quot;Pawan Jackson&amp;quot;]Can I send you these SHX files to your mailing adress?[/quote]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You don&amp;#39;t need to send those files anywhere, other than your customer.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Have you succeeded in displaying those fonts in your installation of MicroStation?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If not, have you used the configuration debugging tools I mentioned?&amp;nbsp; What is the value of configuration variable &lt;span style="font-family:courier new,courier;"&gt;MS_FONTPATH&lt;/span&gt;?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Conversion Issue DWG (Autocad) to DGN (Microstion)</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/298773?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 09 Sep 2014 11:24:34 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:b2edf783-97f0-4ac6-978d-bb6158b7ebd6</guid><dc:creator>pawan jackson</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Jon, Can i send you these SHX files to your mailing adress?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Conversion Issue DWG (Autocad) to DGN (Microstion)</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/298771?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 09 Sep 2014 10:56:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:f00b920f-d9e0-4a65-a6f2-90c12fc5c634</guid><dc:creator>Jon Summers</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote user=&amp;quot;Pawan Jackson&amp;quot;] File is attached above[/quote]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The file you have attached above is a DGN file.&amp;nbsp; It is not an AutoCAD SHX font file.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;[quote user=&amp;quot;Pawan Jackson&amp;quot;]please try to resolve this issue on your system and Provide me the solution. [/quote]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You may find this hard to believe, but MicroStation does not deliver AutoCAD font files.&amp;nbsp; I don&amp;#39;t have AutoCAD &lt;em&gt;INTL_ISO_EQUAL&lt;/em&gt; and I don&amp;#39;t have &lt;em&gt;INTL_ENGINEERING&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We have told you how to resolve this problem.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Anyone wanting to have AutoCAD SHX fonts working with MicroStation must first copy those fonts to her computer&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;MicroStation configuration variable &lt;span style="font-family:courier new,courier;"&gt;MS_FONTPATH&lt;/span&gt; must include the path to the SHX fonts folder&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

These font files need to be stored in the location as defined by the configuration variable MS_FONTPATH. Which is what is being displayed in the message center. As I had mentioned previously this is generally in the folder:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;C:\ProgramData\Bentley\MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries)\WorkSpace\System\Fonts\&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But also as Jon has mentioned this can be different depending on the configuration of the users systems. They need to place the SHX font files you have supplied them into the correct location.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Conversion Issue DWG (Autocad) to DGN (Microstion)</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/297994?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Sep 2014 09:52:46 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:702be591-91b7-45c1-bd05-99c6b9a951bf</guid><dc:creator>Jon Summers</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;The fonts you are using are AutoCAD (&lt;em&gt;SHX&lt;/em&gt;) fonts.&amp;nbsp; MicroStation looks for those fonts in the Windows folder defined by configuration variable &lt;span style="font-family:courier new,courier;"&gt;MS_FONTPATH&lt;/span&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Clearly your customer must put the SHX fonts in the location defined by that configuration variable on his computer.&amp;nbsp; It is possible that his &lt;span style="font-family:courier new,courier;"&gt;MS_FOLDER&lt;/span&gt; is defined differently, or perhaps not at all.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You have to request these SHX font files from wherever or whoever you obtained the original DWG file.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Conversion Issue DWG (Autocad) to DGN (Microstion)</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/297967?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Sep 2014 06:00:09 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:6c38f9f7-737b-4e06-9235-ab5bd99895d0</guid><dc:creator>pawan jackson</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Andrew, I couldn&amp;#39;t found the font &amp;#39;INTL_ISO_EQUAL&amp;#39; &amp;amp; INTL_ENGINEERING on given path :(&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Conversion Issue DWG (Autocad) to DGN (Microstion)</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/297966?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Sep 2014 05:41:21 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:3a99c1d1-6bb1-45dd-a316-79696ec693f1</guid><dc:creator>Andrew Bell</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you for the DGN file. I can see in the Message Center there are a couple of issues with the display of the following SHX fonts (not TTF).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Replaced missing SHX font [INTL_ISO_EQUAL] with [simplex.bigfont].&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Replaced missing SHX font [INTL_ISO_EQUAL] with [simplex.bigfont]. Some text may not display correctly. Make sure that MS_FONTPATH contains the path to the location of the SHX font or that the font is present in the AutoCAD fonts directory. Fallback fonts are specified in the Font Configuration File.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Replaced missing SHX font [INTL_ENGINEERING] with [simplex.bigfont].&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Replaced missing SHX font [INTL_ENGINEERING] with [simplex.bigfont]. Some text may not display correctly. Make sure that MS_FONTPATH contains the path to the location of the SHX font or that the font is present in the AutoCAD fonts directory. Fallback fonts are specified in the Font Configuration File.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This would indicate that it is having a problem locating the SHX fonts INTL_ISO_EQUAL and INTL_ENGINEERING in the location defined by the configuration variable MS_FONTPATH. This would generally be located in the folder:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;C:\ProgramData\Bentley\MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries)\WorkSpace\System\Fonts\&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, what you need to do is locate these SHX font files used with the original DWG file and place them in this folder. MicroStation V8i would then be able to see them and display the text correctly. Rather than using the simplex.bigfont as the default SHX font.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Conversion Issue DWG (Autocad) to DGN (Microstion)</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/297965?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Sep 2014 05:31:41 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:856b15be-21ec-4683-977e-80de79dc825c</guid><dc:creator>Andrew Bell</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Can you provide answers regarding what process you are following to convert the DWG file into a DGN file?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This should include the design files, screen captures of the settings, errors etc to assist with the investigation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What version of MicroStation V8i is being used?&lt;/p&gt;

Are you using MicroStation V8i to open and export to DGN or could it be you are using AutoCad? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Generally, by default, in MicroStation V8i you would not normally have an AutoCad SHX font file being converted to a TTF or Windows True Type Font. This particular type of font file is not a Bentley format. Is there any particular setting that you may be using during the conversion process?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Maybe if you could provide the DWG and converted DGN file along with the process you are following we could try to replicate your issue.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
