Trying to move from AutoCAD LT 2015 to 2017 Lt Mac

When plotting it does not access the pen table it is assigned to. In page setup manager it is set to the correct pen table.

One thing I notice in preferences that is different is there are 3 file paths where 2017 only has one:

2015:

Plot Style table path is under "Plot Style Table Search path" branch, the other two branches in AutoCAD 2015 are not Plot Style related.

Where do you saved Plot Style table in AutoCAD 2015? If it was the default path, than it should not be available for AutoCAD 2017 by default. You need to put your custom Plot Style table files to the folder specified in AutoCAD 2017 settings or add custom path in AutoCAD 2017 Preferences window - "Plot Style Table Search path" branch:

and put your Plot Style table files there.

Thanks Maxim,

That does not fix our problem. The path I have shown is where all our CTB files are located.

We have them centrally located so we are using the same CTB on multiple stations.

Does the path point to the external (network) location?
Can you attach screenshot of your preferences showing path settings?
