A TrueType font library that provides drafting and other CAD symbols

It's currently impossible to create a text element in MicroStation that contains a drafting symbol (such as a center line).  A drafting TrueType font library would solve that problem.  MicroStation text could include the drafting symbol along with other glyphs.  A TrueType font is installed in Windows' fonts folder and becomes available to all apps. on that computer.  No only MicroStation, but other apps., such as Word, could understand and display that same text.

  • Absolutely! Even better if whomever creates one could create several for better compatibility - RomanS really doesn't look Tahoma doesn't look like Garamond. I don't think we'd need ALL the fonts covered, but ones for "stick", sans-serif and serif fonts would go a LONG way.
