Design script changing text and text string font

Unknown said:

I have tried to change printed output to from Arial to Architectural using a design script. I want to keep the Arial font in the design but change font on printed output. This is what I have in the design script but, it's not working.

!
 ! Change font name for certain text strings.
 !
 if ((type == text)) then
 font_name = "Architectural"
  endif

TIA

could this be done  using a custom pentable and RegExp ?

Try the following in your design script:

if ((type == text) and (font_name == "Arial")) then
font_name = "ARCHITECTURAL"
endif

This only changes text in the active file. Anything referenced into the active file did not change text font to Architectural. Any other ideas on getting this to work with a design script.

You are correct it does not affect the reference file, when it should have affected any Text geometry using the Arial font in any file.
Let me suggest you use MicroStation CE 10.04.00.046 or higher where I don't see this issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.
