I'm currently using Gerber OMEGA 2.61 and I have a question regarding fonts. I have been working with some older files of mine that used some fonts I don't have installed. When I try to highlight the text in OMEGA a box pops up saying the following font must be installed before the text block can be edited and gives a number. I was wondering if there is anyway to identify this font by the number given in OMEGA or what the number means.

The number was assigned to it by the Omega TrueType Font Converter. The name of the font will be revealed if you open the GSF file in a word processor as the opening entry.
If you can locate your previously installed TTF Converted fonts, those that were converted start with a "U" followed by seven numbers and the .GSF. I'm not certain but I think the file name number will agree with what is displayed in Composer.

we dopn't use a gerber here, but according to one of our copy omega fonts it assigns the numbers based on the font folder.
if you post a pic/example of the font, we could probably tell you what it is

was thinking the same thing myself...
Alright. Thanks. Also, would anyone happen to know how to print out a scaled sketch using OMEGA?

pen plot it on pounce paper
I was hoping there would be a way to print a quick sketch off a normal printer that is scaled down.

If your old computer is still working you can copy the GSPFonts folder out of the GSP file and move it to the new system. This will allow you to have all the same fonts off your old computer on your new one.
