The program Autodesk® AutoCAD® supports the Unicode character-encoding standard.

SHX font encoded, using the Unicode standard font, can contain many more characters than are defined in the Windows system; therefore, to use a character not directly available from the keyboard, you can enter the escape sequence \U+nnnn, where nnnn represents the Unicode hexadecimal value for the character.

Examples:

\U+00B0    - Degrees symbol (°)

\U+00B1    - Tolerance symbol (±)

\U+2205    - Diameter symbol (Ø)

We have the most AutoCAD SHX fonts, including many important Unicode special characters needed in the fields of engineering and mathematics.

These extended SHX fonts bear the name K_ .... .shx and can be found in the AutoCAD directory ... /Fonts after they are copied there, per our installation software.

We supply the following SHX fonts:

• K_isocp.shx as a modified version of the Font isocp.shx.
• K_isocp2.shx as a modified version of the Font isocp2.shx.
• K_isocp3.shx as a modified version of the Font isocp3.shx.
• K_isoct.shx as a modified version of the Font isoct.shx.
• K_isoct3.shx as a modified version of the Font isoct3.shx.
• K_txt.shx as a modified version of the Font txt.shx.
• K_simpl.shx as a modified version of the Font simpl.shx.
• K_romt.shx as a modified version of the Font romt.shx.
• K_roms.shx as a modified version of the Font roms.shx.
• K_romd.shx as a modified version of the Font romd.shx.
• K_romc.shx as a modified version of the Font romc.shx.
• K_italct.shx as a modified version of the Font italct.shx.
• K_italcc.shx as a modified version of the Font italcc.shx.
• K_italic.shx as a modified version of the Font italic.shx.

To use these fonts declare them using the AutoCAD command “style” and simply choose the font you want to use.

You can also rename the k_... .shx fonts in ... .shx and overwrite the original SHX fonts in the

AutoCAD directory ...\Fonts with new fonts.
