About fonts
ChemBioDraw 13.0 uses the fonts installed on your computer. If a ChemBioDraw document contains fonts that are
not available on a particular computer, they are substituted with the available fonts.
Character map
The floating Character Map window displays the 256 ASCII characters in any font. The default font is Symbol.
Use the character map to add symbols to your document in various font styles. To show or hide the map, go to
View>Show Character Map Window.
The character map is active only when a text box is open for editing. With a text box open, mouse over the character
map to view a larger version of the characters in the top right corner of the window. Click any character in the table to
enter it in the text box. The selected font (shown in the character map window) is applied to that character only. It does
not change the active font in the text box.
The eight most recently used characters appear at the top of the window. A character may appear more than once in
this section if the versions use different fonts. Click the back button to toggle among all the displayed characters.
