Re: Fonts

I am not the expert here, but, I would think if the specific font you want in PC9 is in your Font book on your Mac, you should be able to see it in PC9 under Text/Text Styles/Add Styles then go to the drop down section in Add Styles and Centurl Gothic should be there.

ODA File Converter is easy to use and saves DWGs etc to a format PCadd can open.

PC 9.1.11 includes ODA in the Utilities folder.

We usually select R12 Binary DXF for the output.

Re: Restoring Missing PC Tools Palette

Thanks Derek, that worked. It actually didn't work on just my MBP. I had to connect my MBP to my Apple Display and then reset the size - I made the screen the smallest possible from the choices avaiable. I appreciete the suggestion!

I checked all over my screen and it's not there. It's as if it's been wisked off behind the monitors screen....
