    Posted: 22.Jun.2012 at 21:31
Hello. I created a linetype using text shape. Let’s say, that my line is only AAAAAA. Now when I apply this linetype in the drawing, the lines always have a small, line before and after the characters. Actually you see this: -AAAA- . How can I delete the start and end lines. Thank you.

Post a copy of the linetype definition file and someone here will take a look at it.

It has been a week.  Maybe he solved the problem on his own as he never bothered to post the linetype file.

He actually got an answer on another discussion forum (one of the Autodesk groups I think).  They told him the line cannot be removed.  It's part of the definition.
