Summary


Details

If the text created with Windows Standard Font is imported after CGM Export, the font gap factor will be changed to "0".

Reproduced Steps:

1. Create Note with Windows Standard font ( and NX font)

   -1. On creation, set NX Font Gap Factor (e.g. "3.0")



2. File > Export > CGM

   -2. Settings > Output Text > Text


3. File > Import > CGM


Solution

The behavior works as designed by NX and only supports NX fonts.

WORKAROUND (perform one of the following):

Make use of the supported fonts (under ugii\ugfonts folder

When exporting, specify something other than "text" as "output text" (* in this case, the attribute as text will be lost.)

Notes

NX does not support the reconstruction of the gap factor for True type font because NX does not have the True Type font header information.

Other setting other than the font gap factor (text aspect ratio, etc.) are supported.
