Question:
I am using Russian profiles that are named using Russian characters. I have set the Windows language to Russian and the language for non-Unicode programs to Russian. In Tekla Structures the Russian fonts are shown correctly in drawings, but when I export the drawings into DWG/DXF the fonts are incorrect. How can I achieve the correct result in DWG/DXF?

Answer:
You need to set your export options to support the Russian character set. You can do this in Tekla Structures > File> Options > Advanced Options > Export and set XS_EXPORT_CODEPAGE = ansi_1251. After setting the advanced option you need to re-export the drawings to have the fonts exported correctly.
