When replacing files in vi.lib is done, make sure you document this very well in your own procedures and also make sure normal function is not broken. I didn't place full trust in this library over Labview upgrades but so far it has always remained stable since LV6, so my distrust is no longer valid. I agree that replacing files in vi.lib is a last resort and normally a no-go. I wouldn't recommend 'fixing' VI lib VI's. Seems that it also works without a specified font Of course the font needs to be available. You have to actually set that for for it to use. The font that you refer to is embedded in the PDF. If the system contains BASKVILL.TTF both embedded fonts are fine, but the BASKVILL.TTF font is not used as far as I can see or expect. When the file is missing, pdf is generated fine, using the Helvetica font embedded. I do not connect the font file input (as font file availability is not stable over systems). Instead of custom1 I select any of the default fonts in the Font ID enum. I am using the set font vi in a slightly different way. The file throwing the error dialog is 'read characters from file.vi' in the same llb. I've added a format into string in the 'build error' case in the end. In my case (LV2019) I upgraded 'Open File ' where the error is generated to include the filename when an error happens (attached) fixing 'Read Characters From file.vi' in vi.lib so it doesn't throw a dialog (with useless information in runtime setting).placing a wrapper around 'set font.vi' in the toolkit so it refers to an font present in %windir%\fonts (this font seems to be ignored).installing this font (attached), but it requires admin rights and license.If this font is not installed, the vi will run normally but a error dialog appears each time.įor users of the toolkit, this bug can be fixed by eiher: Seems that this font is related to office. I at least ran into this issue on a windows home PC. It seems that this vi always opens C:\Windows\Fonts\BASKVILL.TTF, which may not be installed. This results in dialogs appearing when the toolkit is used in (run-time) systems that lack this file. This vi throws a warning dialog with no information other than 'couldn't open file' when a file doesn't exist. I found a small 'bug', the 'set font' vi uses the standard 'Read Characters From file.vi' in vi.lib. Wiebe correct me if I am wrong, but to my knowledge the toolkit has become free-of-charge without the disclaimer.
