I am using Autocad Inventor and I am having problems producing 3D text in "Gothic G" text. As seen in the attached picture on the left, I can produce the text in “Tahoma” text but when I go through the same procedure with the Gothic G text I get the following error message after trying to extrude the text in the “Model” window:
“Could not build this extrusion
Self- intersecting loop found in this profile. Remove the intersection by adding a sketch point at the curve intersections or by changing non-profile geometry to constructive geometry"
I have no idea what this message is telling me to do.
I would like to use the Gothic G text for some applicaitons. So I either need to find a way to do it in Autocad or find another CAD program that can do this. The parts the text will be going on are not complicated so the CAD program does not have to be advanced.
Any suggestions?
