hello Roger, find here the way to post a new topic.
For your topic about line weight, do you use stb and/or ctb files to configurate your plots ?

what is the lineweight of Color 6-Magenta per standard practice? is it heavier or thicker than Color 5-Blue?

Please let me know.

Thanks you..


Lineweight can be assigned in the Layer Properties Manager.  Lineweight can also be assigned in your plot style.  You can also make a line appear to be thicker by making it a polyline and assigning a width to it.  And it used to be possible on some pen plotters to override software settings and assign a weight to a line via the printer's own settings although I don't know if that is still an option anymore.  I haven't looked.
