How to Batch Modify Fonts When Exporting CAD Drawings in Revit
Wondering how to batch modify existing text fonts in your drawings during the export process after completing your Revit model? Here is a concise step-by-step guide to help you achieve this.
1. Click the Settings button located in the upper left corner of Revit, as shown below.
2. From the dropdown menu that appears, select Export, then choose CAD Formats. Next, click on DWG from the submenu, as illustrated.
3. The DWG Export dialog box will pop up. Click the Modify Export Setup button next to the export settings task, as shown in the image.
4. In the new export settings dialog, click the New Export Setup button.
5. When prompted, enter a memorable name such as Font for your new export setup, then click OK to confirm.
6. Return to the original export settings dialog and select the Text and Fonts tab.
7. In the dialog box that appears, open the dropdown list to locate and select the Revit font you want to modify— for example, Microsoft Yahei.
8. Under the Text Fonts in DWG section, find the Automatically Map Fonts dropdown menu. From there, choose the corresponding font, such as Microsoft Yahei, to map it appropriately.
9. After selecting the desired font mapping, click OK to confirm the changes.
In summary, this process allows you to batch change all fonts in your Revit drawings to your preferred font (e.g., Microsoft Yahei) during export.
Why This Matters: By adjusting the font mapping in the export settings, you can efficiently batch modify fonts across your exported drawings, making the output more consistent and easier to manage.
