Plotting

(OP)
I am trying to figure out if Acad2002 can plot using linetypes to drive the lineweights, regardless of color. In otherwords, hidden, center, phantom will be thinner than continuous lines, even if they are all the same color, and on different layers. Is it even possible to do this? I have read the Acad "help" sections but they seem to talk in circles on this issue. Some help here would be greatly appreciated... thanks... CD

RE: Plotting

Dear Cadiehl;

Plotting Lineweight in ACAD 2001 is so much simpler than it was in earlier versions. Just type layer, click under the lineweight column and type how thick your line should be.

When plotting make sure plot style is NOT set to "none", I use monochrome.ctb most often.

Regards Adrian

RE: Plotting

Autocad 2001? I don't think so, only versions I know that exists are 2000, 2000i and now the latest 2002.
