Use Text Fonts for International Work
Several factors affect your choosing, entering, and displaying international
text in a drawing.
The program supports the Unicode character-encoding standard. An SHX font
encoded using the Unicode standard font can contain many more characters
than are defined in your system; therefore, to use a character not directly
available from the keyboard, you can enter the escape sequence \U+nnnn,
where nnnn represents the Unicode hexadecimal value for the character.
Beginning with AutoCAD LT 2007, all SHX shape fonts are encoded with the
Unicode standard with the exception of Asian sets, or more commonly known
as Big Fonts. When choosing a text font for international work, you can use
either a TrueType Font or a Big Font.
Asian Big Font SHX Files
Asian alphabets contain thousands of non-ASCII characters. To support such
text, the program provides a special type of shape definition known as a Big
Font file. You can set a style to use both regular and Big Font files.
