Topic: Text Size and Alignment in Projects

Previously (last year), I successfully created, edited, and printed a big project with a large number of manually created elements.


Now I need to return to this project to make some changes. However, when I opened it, I found that the text no longer matches in size and position. This affects the entire project, including both the elements themselves in the Element Editor and the positions of labels and textfields, as well as the text in title blocks.

It seems that the program’s settings are overwriting the text settings in the project.

Please advise how to fix this and how to avoid similar situations in the future. Thanks in advance!

Re: Text Size and Alignment in Projects

Educated guess:
The fonts used when creating the element and resulting project are not available on the system you are using now.

Especially one commercial OS often replaces fonts from one release to another, while the name stays the same.
For example: "Sans Serif" is not the name of a specific font but for the style of a font without serifs. The real font behind that name can be found somewhere deep inside the system.

That's why we ship some fonts with QET for a while and recommend using one of the Liberation fonts or Osifont with QET, so that elements and schematics look the same over the time and on all supported systems.
