There are 3 methods to replace the missing font automatically in ZWCAD+.

A1: set the system variable FONTALT to the font that you want to replace all the missing fonts, please note that it doesn’t include the big-font file.

A2: if you just want to replace different missing fonts with different font file, you can copy the alternative font and rename it as the missing font name, when open the drawing, it will not pop up the “Missing SHX files “dialog box.

A3: You can also edit the FMP file to do the replacement automatically, but by this way, it will replace the font file specified in FMP file regardless of if the font is missing or not. The FMP file path can be found in Option dialog, which can be edited by any text editor. For example, if you want use hztxt0.shx to replace gbcbig.shx, add the following content to a new line.

PS: sometimes it doesn’t work, has small bug here.

hztxt0.shx;gbcbig.shx


By the way, it only changes the display effect, which means it will not change the text style setting.
