Users who want to add a little charm or decoration to their projects or designs can choose to do it with the famous Wingdings font. Wingdings contains symbols instead of alphanumeric characters (letters and numbers), using a different picture for each character. Wingdings and other fonts like Webdings are called dingbat fonts. These two were created and introduced by Microsoft in the 90s. Here you will find a Wingdings chart with its symbols and the corresponding alphanumeric characters found on a standard keyboard.

I am trying to use wingdings 2 font in autoCAD for Mac 2017. In multiline text it is visible but once I select it and start typing it goes back to arial font. In Autocad for Mac 2016 all I did was change the value on the usequartzfont to '0' but this does not work for this version. I also check my fonts and wingdings is installed.

Use of the Wingdings chart

Since fonts like Wingings can’t be used to spell words, they are mostly decorative. Designers use it for visual appeal frequently. A Wingdings symbol can help frame a list acting like a bullet or draw attention to the framing header page header on its sides. Wingdings can also take the place of basic shapes (vectors) in the design so that designers don’t have to create the shape themselves

How to Find Wingdings Character Map in Windows

Charmap (or “Character Map”) in a program built into the MS Windows operating system. You can use it to insert or take a look at the characters of the encodings and fonts installed on your system.

There are many ways to open the CharMap, depending on your version of Windows.

• For Windows 10, the best way to find character maps is pressing the Start key (windows logo key), and on the Start screen simply start typing “charmap”. You should see an element named Character Map. Click on it.
• For older versions of Windows, you can click the Start button, and find All programs > Accessories > System Tools > Character Map.
  • Another way to do this, is: Start > Run > type “charmap” on the text field, and press Enter on your keyboard.

With the help of the character map you can choose any font, such as the Wingdings chart, a group of characters (like Greek, or mathematical symbols) and copy the text characters you need. You can write them by double-clicking on them and copying-and-pasting them from there, wherever you want. It is really easy.

Hi guys,

I found a sneaky way to get a document 'unfrozen'. I take no responsibility for what happens if you try this, but it worked for me.

I went to Utilities -> Activity Monitor. Then under the Memory Tab, I selected 'Windows Server' and shut this down. The screen went blank and I was sent back to the User log-in screen. Then after I logged in again, my document was re-opened and re-appeared in the 'Recovered' state. I did have 'Allow Backround Saves' and 'Save AutoRecover Info every 10 minutes' ticked in my Preferences (under the Word menu). And I probably didn't need to do it this way because of that.

But it worked...
