Dynamo does not recognize Cyrillic text from CADTextData / Bimorph nodes

Hello,

I am working on a graph, reading rooms’ data from CAD files. I am using CADTextData.FromLayers node from bimorph package:

I had to install a specific font to make the Cyrillic text readable within AutoCAD and Revit:

but Dynamo doesn’t still recognize it when data is read through the bimorph node:

any ideas how to solve this would highly appreciated :slight_smile:

I don’t seem to have that problem at all btw. So might be something in your local files or settings

as mentioned already, its a custom font and I think that’s the reason. I had to install it, but it does not seem to be recognized by the node

The nofe exports to DXF then parses the DXF to extract the text as its not possible via the Revit API. Try doing this manually and open the DXF. Is the text converted correctly? If not check the docs for DXF and make sure your fonts are compatible.
