DWF Line Weights Too Heavy

[Anonymous]

Hi Group,

I am publishing some DWGs to DWF, but when I zoom in close on the resulting
DWF or when I plot the DWF, the line weights are way too heavy. How can
maintain the same resolution as exists in the original DWG?

Thanks.

What app are you using to publish, and what app to view/print/plot?

You might want to use the same ctb file that you use to print the file to a
printer.

Don'tr forget that a DWF is a _plot_, so the lineweights are whatever
you set them to be in the plot setup. If you zoom in, they will still
be that weight, not 1 pixel wide (or whatever lines in a dwg are).

Thanks.

That's what it was. I adjusted the ctb file to take care of it.
