How to convert MicroStation fonts (*.rsc) to AutoCAD fonts (*.shx).

Solution

If a DGN file that you want to save to DWG format uses MicroStation fonts, you can opt to convert them to AutoCAD fonts when you convert the file to DWG.

  1. From the File tab, choose Save As.
  2. From the Save as Type list, choose AutoCAD Drawing Files (*.dwg) or AutoCAD DXF Files (*.dxf).
  3. Click Options. The Save As DWG/DXF Options dialog opens.
  4. In the list box, open the Fonts category under general tab. 

           5. Turn on Convert MicroStation Fonts to AutoCAD Fonts.

           6. Use the SHX Output Directory field to specify the directory where the AutoCAD fonts are stored. The converted fonts are saved to a *.shx file in this directory.
