TEXTS inside CATIA V5, and benefit from full associativity.

Is it possible to work with True Type and Single Line

Fonts?

Type3 CAAV5 Based allows the use of all True Type

and Single Line Fonts installed on the PC as well as all

VN fonts (single/stroke line fonts).

Can we work with Asian and Arabic True Type fonts?

You can work with Asian, Russian or Arabic TTF as

long as you install CATIA on any non US or European

Windows Environments. All you need to do is retrieve

the Foreign Windows Fonts and work with them

directly from your keyboard.

3. How to retrieve CATIA's default Fonts in Type3 CAA

V5?

By installing the Fonts under the OS Fonts Directory.

4. When we create Text and Logo with Type3 CAA V5,

what kind of entities do we build in CATIA V5?

A feature text within CATIA's tree is created. It can be

modified by accessing all parameters individually

without having to edit the feature text.

5. Why using single/stroke line fonts (VNF for

instance)?

Single line fonts are usually used to save time during

the machining phase (following the profile) offering an

alternative to pocketing.

6. Are all Fonts G1 type?

By default standard TTF fonts are not G1, but with

Type3 CAAV5 Based it is possible to convert fonts into
