An issue with Custom linetype thicknesses

Anonymous — Thu, 18 Feb 2016 06:00:15 GMT

afternoon guys,

i'm having some issues with the thickness of a custom linetype between drawings. on our civil standard it comes up as a fine line but when copying the same line over to our sewer standard sheet it changes the thickness of the triangles on the line. i've noticed that this has happened to our other linetypes as well.

i've attached wblock our standard and of what has been happening. any assistances would be greatly appreciated as i'm starting to pull my hair out.

Hi,

the linetype is using characters from the textstyle "Standard"

And the difference is that one type the textstyle "Standard" is set to "Arial" and the other one is set to "txt.shx", make them equal (command _STYLE) and you'll see the same display representation.
