Darker Lines for Linked Models

Hi everyone

 

I've printed out a couple of mechanical drawings, with a linked architectural model, and the linked model's lines are appearing too light. Is there a way to make the architectural model's lines appear darker? I'm printing to PDF, then to a KIP 3100 printer, if any of that helps.

 

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried:  Manage tab > Settings panel > Additional Settings > Halftone / Underlay and moving the 'Brightness' closer to 'Dark'?

Can I do the same thing but only apply it to a single view? I want to keep the discipline as Electical, but make the Architectural features of the linked file darker.

One cannot control that per view. You would have to disable the halftone for all underlays, and that mark the Revit Link as halftone in each View through V/G.

An option is to create a separate sheet set and page set up replacing thin lines and printing black lines rather than gray scale.
