RSLogix and fonts - PLCS.net

oldelectrician · September 15th, 2004, 11:48 AM

For some reason, RSLogix never has all the fonts available that are available in the operating system. Is there some trick to making a font available in RSLogix? This has always been a problem, I am running version 6.2 of RSLogix 500 and it is still a problem.

I can change the fonts by opening a Project, clicking "View" and then "Properties", selecting the "Fonts" tab. BTW, I find my programs operate much better when I select one of the Arial fonts. (Just kidding).

Yes, I know how to change the font, but many fonts are missing from the list. For instance, lets say I have blue or engineer font installed on my operating system, and all of the microsoft office app,s are able to use them, why don't they show up in the list. If you will go into settings, control panel and look at all the fonts on your machine, then compare that list to the ones available in RSLogix, you will notice the list is rather short. Thanks,
