2D Exchange, Dwg, Colours

(OP)
Can anyone shed any light on how to control entity colours when exporting a drawing to dwg using the 2d exchange exporter?

I have a drawing and I want everything to be black in the exported file. I have made everything black inside NX but when the dwg is opened in AutoCAD, the colours of some things are different. The main ones are the lines of the table in tabular notes and the leader lines of drawing notes which both seem to come out blue for some reason. I just don't seem to be able to get them to show in black. My customer is complaining that each time I send them a drawing revision they have to spend time changing the colours to make it readable.

Appreciate any help.
