2. Click the Browse… button for the HMI500 EOB file and select the EasyBuilder-500 project file you

wish to convert.

3. By default, the converted file is automatically placed into the same directory. To modify the name of

the file or location, click the Browse… button for the HMI5000P project file.

4. Default font: All text objects in theEasyBuilder-500 project file use a proprietary fixed font. When

converting to an EZwarePlus project, these text objects are converted to TrueType fonts. Use this

section to specify which TrueType fonts you wish to use.

The EZware-500 configuration software uses proprietary fonts that must be replaced with a

Windows TrueType font. EZwarePlus installs three TrueType fonts into the Windows > Fonts folder

that closely resemble the fonts used in EZware-500 (HMI 500 16p, HMI 500 24p, HMI 500 8p). Select

Use HMI500 ASCII font files to use these fonts. If you choose to use another Windows TrueType font

(by unchecking Use HMI500 ASCII font files), additional ‘tweaking’ may be required after you have

converted your project. We recommend using Calibri if you have this font available on your

computer. Otherwise, another san serif font like Helvetica should work.

You can allow EZwarePlus to automatically adjust the font size for you by selecting Use the most

suitable font size automatically. If you uncheck this box, you can click on the Font Size Table button,

which allows you to customize the transition size of the fonts from EasyBuilder-500 to EZwarePlus

projects. This gives you maximum flexibility in deciding which font and which sizes you would like to

use. For the Calibri font, we recommend those items as shown in the table below.
