I have this odd problem that I can't reproduce on demand. Every day when have a drawing open for a while, I eventually get my text going crazy. For example there are a few random letters missing in my drawing, but if I click on the text to edit, the missing letter is actually still there. So if the letter q is appears to be missing, when I click to edit, it is actually still there. Usually only a few letters missing in a drawing, but other times all text from a certain font is missing, while a different font is not missing at all. Also, I have a cell with text that occasionally the text is distorted (twice as wide as normal). The missing text is also missing when printed. If I close the Microstation and re open dgn, then everything is back to normal. I should also note that I often have 4 different session of microstation running at the same time. Not sure if that contributes to the problem. Out tech person, updated my video drivers, but that did not help. I have dual screens & Nvidia quadro fx 4600 (intel core 2 cup and 4GB RAM). This never happened with v8i. Now I have v8i select series 2. (8.11.07.443), I think this this is when the problem started. Any idea, why this could happen? Thanks.

Anyone out there at least have a wild guess, where can I start to look?
Odd, very odd, I only had troubles when a font in a rsc file had the same name as a TTF font from windows. But then it was wrong all the time... Maybe you find a solution with the info in the Wiki on Fonts . Regards, Gerd
We are having the same issue with Power GEOPAK V8i SS4 (08.11.09.904)
The file has not been open all that long, about 2 & 1/2 hours, and it just so happens that Q is one of the letters missing for us as well. Once the file was closed & re-opened, it comes back just fine but it is a frustrating issue to deal with since one of the fonts with the issue is built into our sheet cells.
Did anyone ever figure out what was causing this?
yep happens to us at work too
Its like msnt loses link to server where the prj file is, that points to my custom workspace and all the resources including custom linestyles and custom fonts we all share...

Has anyone found the fix for this??...We have Connect and our text goes missing also. Might be every other letter might be entire words go missing. when we exit the file and open it back up its fine. We have found that when it acts up the special characters section of the text the same letters are missing. Any help would be appreciated!!
