Export to PDF

When exporting my AutoCAD 2015 files to a pdf format ... the plot table I am using sets all pens to colour "black" while maintaining linetype properties and weights etc., however in the pdf file the colours are present. I want my pdf files to be grayscale based on the linetype properties and weights.

Hi,

 

>> however in the pdf file the colours are present

Have you exported the PDF or have you used _PLOT with the assiciated CTB?

And to the colors: are these colors true-color or color-index colors (from 1 to 255), only the index values can be converted with CTB, true color stay as true color.

Last but not least: what visual style did you use? If that is a rendered style like "realistic" the colors are converted to true color and so not converted by CTB, use a visual style like "2D-Wireframe" instead.
