BricsCAD Fonts

Does anyone know if BricsCAD uses a default font, or if it uses all of the fonts in the fonts folder? I am trying to eliminate any excess fonts, or unused fonts in the fonts folder. Thank you.

    Assuming you mean the BricsCAD font folder and not the system one:
    Look at the FONTALT and BASEFILE Variables - the fonts listed here / included in this file are definitely needed, fonts included in any other template (see TemplatePath) should be available as well.
    On top of this, I do not see a benefit in  suppressing .shx fonts in BricsCAD's font directory, since they provide compatibility with AutoCAD and do not take up much disk space.
    Of course, if you are sure not to receive drawings with text in Asian languages, you might delete the hangul, trad_chin and japanese font files and regain the impressive amount of 4MB.
