Gdt font

Add frames to numbers and punctuation, follow each character with a ”!”. Use "[" to start boxed dimensions and end with "]". eg for "|12|" use "[1!2!]"Use "{" to start feature control frames and end with "]". eg to print a feature control frame for “PROFILE 0.2 |A|B(m)|C|” use “{k_|0!.!2!|A_|B_m_|C_|”This uses some unusual metrics to add the frames and I don’t know if it will work on macs and in all windows applications. It works in all the windows programs I have tested.This font covers most of the ASME-14.5M items. I will post updates when and if they become available.Peter Kanold-OO- Y14.5M.zip Y14.5M.zip 9.1 KB · Views: 1,214 FishOKTMB #19 I managed to muddle through it, thanks though! Appreciate the effort. The procedure is :- 1) Unzip the Zip file to any folder (Let us say C:\)2) Able to see the file " gdt_____.ttf" in the C:\ folder 3) Open Control panel ,or Type "Control" in the Start >>> Run 4) After opening COntrol panel GO to Fonts , open it .5) From Menu, "File" Select "Install New font" , In the Pop up , Locate the path ( As per above example:- C:\ ) 6) Select the " gdt_____.ttf in the list of fonts. and Click "OK"7) That it.8) Open the Word or excel , you will be able to see the Font as "gdt" Micronus #20 Here is my first update to the Y14.5M.ttf font. I have attached a couple zip file of the font and a program that creates feature control frames and outputs them as either a bitmap or the character string. The bitmaps are nice because you don't need the font installed on other computers that view the files. If you only want the font it is in the FontOnly.zip file.Again this is public domain with no usage restrictions. Please copy it and use it however and where ever you like. If I make any substantial updates, I'll upload them to this thread in the future.If you find any bugs, or would like changes, you can post comments here and I might make the changes.I hope you find this useful.Micronus-OO- GD&T_F1.zip GD&T_F1.zip 1.3 MB · Views: 1,325 GD&T_F2.zip GD&T_F2.zip 920.1 KB · Views: 1,012 FontOnly.zip FontOnly.zip 9.4 KB · Views: 859 Y14.5M.JPG 69.5 KB · Views: 2,174

#11 How do I integrate these symbols in my document?I can open the zip file, and what do I do now?Thanks for your help. Simply copy and paste the TTF file into your Fonts folder, this will automatically install the font.Typical path:"C:\WINDOWS\FONTS"Once installed it will be ready to use in most applications. Here is an Excel application example that is typical to most applications.In Excel, find the Font menu in the upper menus of Excel menu bars. From the menu you select the appropriate font, in this case "gdt_____.ttf"You will have to get used to remembering Key codes to use the font.Such as, example, pressing the following keys while holding down the "ALT" key will produce this character "Ø".ALT 0 2 1 6(Spaces are for clarity only).In the program I suggested ($50.00) you select the desired character from a menu with a simple mouse click. Installing the IMS.TTF font is the same as above. #12 Note that if the font is just copied into the fonts folder you might have to reboot before programs will "see" it, because fonts are enumerated at boot time (which is why getting rid of some fonts can speed up the boot process if you have a lot of them). Also, you can just open Character Map and select/paste from there. In Win XP, it's Start/AllPrograms/Accessories/System Tools/Character Map. Or even simpler, Start/Run and then charmap. No $50 required.

I have downloaded the .zip file to my desktop and then attempted to save it to C:\Windows\Fonts. However I get an error message because it is still zipped or the file format is incorrect. How do you unzip the file, doesn't XP automatically unzip. Has anyone else had this problem? FishOKTMB #17 I don't know if I'll be sent up the river for this, but here you are: Got it Thanks very much!!!!! Micronus #18 Attached is a font I created using ASME-Y14.5-1994 format. It is 100% public domain and can be copied and used in any way you like as long as the copyright notice in the font remains. You can add frames around Letters by following each with a "_" character.

I am still learning GD&T, so please don't be harsh about my ability to use it. Worth mentioning, this file was created with Solidworks. The customer requires everything be available in .DWG for whatever reason. Mark as New Bookmark Subscribe Mute Subscribe to RSS Feed Permalink Print Report Well, this file is not a DWG format file (it has just a DWG extension) so anything can happen but the GDT symbols show up properly in my AutoCAD so I recommend to locate and fix the GDT.SHX file (should be placed in AutoCAD support path).Vladimir Michl, www.cadstudio.cz www.cadforum.cz Anonymous Not applicable ‎10-14-2017 07:35 PM Mark as New Bookmark Subscribe Mute Subscribe to RSS Feed Permalink Print Report So I ran the repair function through the AutoCad launcher, and found the file shx file, but nothing has changed. Even when I generate a feature control frame in AutoCad, I still get the same result. I have installed AutoCad on my E drive, and not on my C drive. Is it maybe looking in the wrong place?
