I have a few custom linetypes created for the cut and fill daylight boundary on a grading and corridor. I have it set up to put these lines on different layers than the rest of the grading. I can turn the rest of the grading off and just have my surface created from the grading and these daylight lines on that are linked to the grading. Everything looks good when I go to paperspace to print, except when I actually print the daylight lines do not. They appear in paperspace but not on an actual hard copy. I do not need the grading, I have tried extracting the lines and deleting the grading. This presents another problem. When I extract the lines the come in as a solid line and I cannot get my custom linetype to show despite changing LT scale, etc. How can I make these lines appear in the fashion I want them to.
If they appear in the layout, but not in plot preview, check for no-plot layers.
You have to check the layer set in the style and the layer that the object is actually on.
Now you have extracted the lines, I imagine they are 3D polylines. Try converting them to 2D polylines, and then also check the linetype generation setting.

I would say to check the NO PLOT option on the layers, and for the linetype problem, check the linetype generation on the polylines.
