Bobcad provides a stick font, but I thought it was "ugly", and so reverse engineered the file format and made some adjustments. I haven't used it in a while, but it did work well. If you can prove your ownership of Bobcad, I could make the changes available. I can't just give it out to anybody, because it is copyrighted property of Bobcad. I only fixed about 4 letters that looked bad.
