Now I don't want to name names, but for those of you who have had this problem, have you recently installed any new software on your system? And if so, what? Well it turns out that we've been starting to get more complaints about this and the only common 'thread' that we've been able to identify is that this seems to happen after certain software packages have installed on your system (note that NONE of these are Siemens PLM Software products so we're not doing it to ourselves -). OK, that explains what is supposed to happen, but how is it that your system is losing fonts and therefore forcing NX to use a substitute, often one which is less than desirable.

Now if you select in Preferences the Windows Style 'NX with System Font' then you will get whatever font is the Windows default. the Windows Style as 'NX (Recommended)' NX will use the MS Windows supplied font 'Lucida Sans Unicode Regular' (this is always our first choice), and if that is not found it will 'fail-over' (as has already been described) to one of the other 'Lucida' style fonts, often the Italics version. While one might THINK that the problem is with Windows (i.e., Microsoft) I'd be a little careful placing the blame quite yet. RE: NX 7.5 font problem - ARGH! ToigaT (Aerospace) I have attached a 'Lucida Sans' (Lucida Sans Regular) font file for your convenience. I hope this helps, and perhaps if you have a problem with another font, this may guide you to resolve it. After removing these derivatives of Lucida Sans, NX should return to normal. This is a better albeit slower way of checking the font names. On a windows system, if you double click a font file it will bring up a preview of the font, as well as displaying the font name for you to see. In fact, it is advised not to remove these files as they are used by other programs as well as by NX. This is a different name than 'Lucida Sans' and should not affect NX at all. Please be very careful to note that there are other versions of Lucida Sans such as 'Lucida Sans Unicode', which has a font name of: 'Lucida Sans Unicode'. One of the quick fixes is to ensure to have 'Lucida Sans' (Lucida Sans Regular) installed into windows or alternatively, remove these derivatives of 'Lucida Sans'. The font name resides inside the font itself and cannot be changed simply by renaming the file.), NX will default to using the derivative and will therefore display the wrong font, in this case, a Demibold version of the font. If 'Lucida Sans' is not installed into the fonts directory but a derivative is, such as 'Lucida Sans Demibold' and it has the same font name (this is not the same thing as a file name. NX searches the Windows fonts directory and there is a specific search for 'Lucida Sans' (Lucida Sans Regular). *Note: Please do not confuse this with 'Lucida Sans Unicode' (Lucida Sans Unicode Regular) as this is a different font set altogether despite the similar name. For example, 'Lucida Sans' (Lucida Sans Regular) is not present in system but 'Lucida Sans' (Lucida Sans Demi Bold) is.įont name: Lucida Sans (This has the exact same name as the original 'Lucida Sans' (Lucida Sans Regular)) (C:\Windows\Fonts)ĭerivative of 'Lucida Sans' (Lucida Sans Regular)' is installed into Windows font directory without original font being present.
Lucida sans unicode regular install#
Install 'Lucida Sans' (Lucida Sans Regular) into windows font directory. NX menu and other NX windows are displaying font incorrectly or displaying wrong font entirely when using the default windows style 'NX (Recommended)' (Preferences -> User Interface -> Layout -> Windows Style).
