text font

Does anyone know how to change the text font?
I am referring to text that you can add to the design.
I am trying to make our fab and assembly drawings look more like our AutoCAD drawings. I would like to change to RomanS.
Thanks

    Allegro does not have the capability of selecting different fonts. It uses something called text blocks available under Setup-Text Sizes... The only thing that you can do, is to create/change the fields of the various text sizes.

    To add to what Osprey said; Allegro only uses vector fonts because exact control is needed for artwork and/or plotting. It is not a general purpose drafting tool.
