dxf format for a hidden line?

(OP)
Hello!

I am currently outputting a simple dxf file from a JavaScript program, all it contains are simple lines, I need to change some of the lines to a hidden line, how can I do that? here is my basic line code, can I do something in here to make it a hidden line or do I need to add line type tables, and change all my format?
