My office uses as its standard "x-opta1d.shx" font. Is there a Truetype font that looks similar? See attached...

I don't see anything quite like it without serifs. The closest with serifs seems to be Garamond with about a 1.1 width factor. Sans serif would be something closer to Stylus. I'm only looking through the Revit/Windows defaults though. We avoided anything but a default just to cut out the old headaches we had with coordinating a custom font in AutoCAD. If this is also going to be your main drawing font, you may also want to save yourself some headaches and pick a font with the symbols you want built into the character set...like plus/minus, diam symbol, sqft symbol, delta, vert. fractions, copyrigth, etc. etc. if you use them. In our quest for a font, we also narrowed it down by looking at the old drafting standards we wanted to keep...like closed-top 4s, Is with tops and bottoms and distinguishable from 1s, Js with tops, etc. Some/none of this may concern you or be applicable, but I thought I'd throw it out there in case.

On my machine, it looks like there are a few that are similar, but not exactly the same as x-opta1d.shx. You can give Lucida Sans, Trebuchet MS (with a 1.1, maybe 1.2 width factor) or Verdana a shot.
