	Can I work with entity line width (thickness) even in R14?
	No, line thickness as entity (object) property was introduced only in newer versions of AutoCAD. In R14 you can assign width (weight) only to polylines. But you can assign line widths when performing prints/plots - using the "pen" mapping mechanism.
