The text tool in Ultiboard Mechanical Cad allows multiple lines of text when using a Windows font, although a square symbol marks the end of each line. When using a line font, it displays as one, not multiple lines.
In either case, when one exports to a *.dxf file of that layer, the *.dxf file can't be read. I tried 2 different *.dxf file readers and got the same results (Error reading file).
I entered the drawing notes line by line, and the *.dxf file was OK.

Please upload a Ultiboard file that demostrate this problem, I like to export the dxf file to see the problem.

Hi Tien P,
Attached is the Ultiboard Project file
viaTest.ewprj
In Ultiboard Mechanical Cad Drawing 1, there is the text "Abc" in a Line Font.
Export using DXF to a *.dxf file.
Change "Abc" to
"Abc
Bcd"
(So there is a carriage return within the text)
Export using DXF to another *.dxf file
The *.dxf reader used reads in the first but reports an error with the second *.dxf file.
