    I am trying to use the @ symbol in text. It seems to dissappear when I vectorize the text. Has anyone else had this problem and is there a way to get around it?

    Hey Marty;
    Welcome to the Bobcad world of funky fonts. Unfortunately, I do not have the answer and had a similar problem with one of the other fonts. I ended up leaving a blank in the letter space and drawing it in with line draw.
    I emailed bobcad but never got a response!
    You may just wander around the different fonts and sooner or later, you may find one that "works".

    I tried a number of fonts. Some would not show up at all. Some would show up on the screen, but after vetorizing they were gone. In some of the fonts, I could get the @ to show up by putting a space on either side, but it still would go away after the vectorizing.
