Changing fonts

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 10 years ago

I need to select non-standart font for all text in the schematics, but

Eagle does not support it. So I have to export sheet to DXF and edit it

with Autocad. It`s working, but change font in Eagle would be very easier.

    I would prefer that Eagle drops all support for proportional fonts and set all fonts hardcoded to vector.

    It's the only way to guarantee that a font ends up as expected, everywhere and on every kind of system.

     

    Also, imho, non-vector fonts make a schematic look amateurish.

    That is a very bad idea - unless they would finally implement a nice

    looking vector font (like Hershey), which also is a very long-standing

    request...

    The built-in fonts guarantee that as well.

    But IMHO you're completely wrong here.

     

    EAGLEs extremely ugly vector font makes schematics appear as if they

    were created by some amateurish software that can't do better.

    Let's agree that we don't agree.
