I remember starting using ADT3.3 around that time. It took a lot of time to
get adjusted to learning to use the AEC objects. Certainly nothing as nice
as the elevation file could have been produced with ADT3.3 without a near
master using ADT. The drawings are nicely drawn and typical of that period
and of many still using ACA. Drafter's used to manual projection have a
much higher degree of control over what their final result looks like when
they draw it manually.

Moving this thread to the ADT3.3 would accomplish little since it is obvious
to those of use using ACA that these drawings were drawn in ADT3.3 as if it
were ACAD 2000i. If you own ACA 2010, then this is the right place to talk
about the program you are using.
You can convert the linework to ACA objects by using the drawings as an
underlay in your constructs. Chances are though that you would gain little
by that process.

another file is attached, front elevation. You guys are probably right
architect drew lines, but isn't that unlikely since there are windows, door,
etc. and who in their right mind would waste time drawing lines if Autocad
already has library of objects, etc?
