I use Autocad 2008LT and want to save the file in .pdf monochrome when I email it to contractors. I can plot in monochrome easily but when I convert .dwg to .pdf and go to properties- graphics->vector graphics monochrome is grayed out in resolution and color depths. A line below says "this device cannot configure some (all) of these values". Is this a limitation of LT? Please advise.

But is not Monochrome a stardard Plotstyle offering in the Plot dialog?
No need to go into the Properties of the device.

Convert to PDF using what 3rd party tool?
LT2008 does not have a PDF converter. Just a PDF plot driver. Please elaborate. Monochrome plot style table will work both to a physical printer and to a PDF printer driver.
If you also installed a PDF driver in Windows you can PLOT to it from LT2008 (and you seem to be able to PLOT monochrome just fine according to your post).
