Font files for customizing Tekla Structures

You can define the location of font files with the advanced option DXK_FONTPATH in the teklastructures.ini or your environment initialization file.

For example, you can use fonts available in the <installation folder>\Environments\common\fonts folder.

If you install Tekla Structures in the \Program Files\Tekla Structures\<version>\ folder, the fonts are located in the ..\ProgramData\Trimble\Tekla Structures\<version>\Environments\common\fonts folder.

This folder includes the following Tekla Structures system fonts:

  • fixfont.fon

  • romco.fon

  • romsim.fon

  • romsim8.fon

Note:

The Cyrillic fonts GOST 2.304-81 type A.ttf and GOST 2.304-81 type B.ttf are located in the C:\Windows\Fonts folder, not the <installation folder>Environments\common\fonts folder.

Fonts are converted using font conversion files that are available in the same folder:
