I have never seen this issue before. My company's custom linetypes have gone awry only in one particular drawing. It is as if the arrows are enlarged and offset from the line, it should look like the line on the bottom. I am fairly AutoCAD illiterate and have no experience creating custom linetypes. Any help would be appreciated
Hi,
if you would upload the drawing it would be easier to know what is specific in that drawing (as you wrote it is only happening in one drawing).
One idea: look to the text-styles (command _STYLE) and see if there are any styles defined with a height <> 0.00 ... if so reset them to 0.00, close the dialog and run _REGEN.

A fixed-height Style definition is likely the cause [that's just the kind of effect it would have], but I would suggest limiting that solution. Rather than changing any and all Style definitions to zero height [which could cause all kinds of other problems], look at the linetype definition to find what Style it uses, and check the definition of that one Style in that one drawing, to see whether it has a fixed height. If so, check whether it also does in other drawings. It's possible [it seems unlikely, but it could be if they always draw things at the same scale] that it has a fixed height in other drawings too, but has somehow gotten a different fixed height in that one drawing, rather than that it is defined at zero height in other drawings. Change its defined height in that drawing to be the same as in other drawings, whether it's zero or not.
