Question
Help! I seemed to have lost my favorite font. I don't know how or why. It is the "archstyl.shx" font. All of my drawings have reverted back to an ugly font. I still have the font, or at least I think I do. I have an icon that at least was the original font. My question is how do I get it back so that I can use it in my drawings? Oddly, the font name is in the dropdown menu in the text style window, but it will not let me select "apply". By the way, I am using AutoCAD 2006. Thanks!!!

Answer
Shaun,

You can download the font also at this following location:

Unzip & drop the *.shx files to your support file search path. (For example: C:\Program Files\Autodesk 2006\fonts). Restart your Autocad session & check if new font is now recognized. Let me know!
