Converting a document with text to DWG

[Quasarrs]

There is a problem that when converting to DWG, the text alignment settings are lost. If you manually select this text in DWG and move it, then all the alignment settings will be set correctly. Tell me, is this a problem with ODAconverter? Can this problem be solved?

import ezdxf
from ezdxf.enums import TextEntityAlignment
from ezdxf.addons import odafc

doc = ezdxf.new("R2018", setup=True)
msp = doc.modelspace()

ezdxf.options.set("odafc-addon", "win_exec_path",
                  r"C:\Program Files\ODA\ODAFileConverter 25.12.0\ODAFileConverter.exe")

msp.add_text(
    "Text LEFT",
    height=0.35,
    dxfattribs={"style": "LiberationSerif"}
).set_placement((2, 6), align=TextEntityAlignment.LEFT)

msp.add_text(
    "Text RIGHT",
    height=0.35,
    dxfattribs={"style": "LiberationSerif"}
).set_placement((2, 7), align=TextEntityAlignment.RIGHT)

doc.saveas("text_dxf.dxf")
odafc.export_dwg(doc, "text_dwg.dwg", replace=True)

DXF file

DWG file

I selected the text in the CAD editor and moved it, it immediately set the alignment.

This seems to be a bug in the ODAFileConverter app. I can reproduce the error with ODAFC v25.4.0 and a wrong alignment in the DWG file in BricsCAD v25 and TrueView 2024.

The DWG Export by BricsCAD has no issues.

@Quasarrs You haven't installed the liberation fonts or your CAD application can't find it. The output should look like this:

1. There is no such font in the system. I think this will not affect the solution of the problem.
2. Yes, when manually saving to DWG using CAD, such a problem does not occur. I also had ODA 24.10.0 and there is exactly the same problem. And this only occurs with the Text entity. The result is that this is a converter problem. Okay, we will live with it.
