      <description>&lt;P&gt;Does it happen when you create a NEW blank drawing (adding those text styles and loading)?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Can the drawing have some errors (try to AUDIT, -PU, and PU the drawing / SAVE)?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you copy the same linetypes from another functional drawing, does it show up correctly?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

As i copy pasted the infomration from one file to the other (new) the lines are copied correctly. But this are all the individual lines (with individual LINs). my goal was to combine them into one single LIN file without having to built them all again. I dont know, something like LAYMRG for example, but for Linetypes.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/37212"&gt;@pendean&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;my goal is to be able to load this in any DWG.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
