Have downloaded Adobe Graphite Std fonts. They come in as open type. I can't get Revit to find them. Any suggestions?

Revit uses any font that is installed in windows. Install the fonts in Control Panel-->Fonts then restart revit.

Autocad is the same. Windows can uses both truetype and opentype but not Autodesk products. I purchased three Adobe Graphite STD fonts, installed them exactly as you described, made sure they are in WINNT font directory, but Revit and Autocad can't use them. A number of similar but not as neat fonts are available free as truetypes, installed them the same as the opentype fonts and Revit/Autocad finds them no problem. I am now negotiating with Adobe to try to get a refund.

We used fontcreator (shareware free for 30 days, $79 after that) to save the opentype (.otf) fonts as truetype (.ttf) ones. We were even able to modify the funny looking "9" in Graphite to look better. Works great in Revit and Autocad.
