    BOBCAD FONT

    I have both Bodcad V24 and V2 for solidworks. My question is this. There is a Bobcad font within V24 and it is a single line font. Is there a way to load this font into window to be used in solidworks?

    idk about loading fonts into solidworks but If you are looking for a stick font in solidworks.

    go to SKETCH TEXT. uncheck USE DOCUMENT FONT, click FONT.

    Select OLF SIMPLE SANS (the letters look a little weird in the dropdown box, but it is the one you want), type the text you want, attach text to curve or line, click ok

    From there you just explode the text, then you can select the geometry in the Engraving toolpath screen.

    I hope this helps.....

    You would explode the font in BobCad and then just export the geometry to V2 for solidworks....
