The majority of the installed fonts that came in Windows show either 'Editable' or 'Installable' in that same column. This question got louder in my mind when I noticed in the Windows Font folder that these newly downloaded fonts show as 'Print and preview' or 'Restricted license, print and preview' in the Font Embeddability column heading.

Since I installed some free Swis721 TTF fonts that I found on the Web into the Windows Fonts folder (and also copied those fonts into the Draftsight Fonts folder location) but still cannot see them inside Draftsight, I'm now wondering if I need to download a purchased font like RLJK mentioned above. As ReMark mentioned above, apparently Draftsight uses the Windows TTF Fonts but also has its own unique Fonts folder - the only related Draftsight setting I found is for a Font Mapping File (fonts.fmp) which contains mostly. I had hoped it would be straightforward like you mention, but alas, it was not so. Amazingly enough the Effra Bold text style appears in the list of available fonts! I recently installed the 2D version of nanoCAD in anticipation of the free version of Draftsight soon going the way of the dodo. And, yes, I did execute a RESTART between the installation of the font and testing. For the moment I am stumped as to why the font will not show up in Draftsight but I will continue to explore the problem. I even copied the file into the Draftsight Fonts folder, repeated the procedure and got the same results. Unfortunately it did not appear on the list of available fonts. Following this I opened Draftsight, ran the TextStyle command and tried loading the same font. I next opened up my copy of OpenOffice, selected Text document, and I was able to switch from the default font to Effra Bold.

As per Draftsight instructions I used the Install procedure to install the font to the Windows 10 Fonts folder. While waiting for the turkey to roast I attempted to install one of the Effra fonts previously mentioned. (and to any ex-pats reading this wherever you are). Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate the holiday in the U.S.
