Lineweights not plotting correctly as per CTB file.

Anonymous

Hi! Can someone please help me? I switched to a new computer and upgraded my AutoCadLT 2016 Mac version to AutocadLT Mac 2021. I uploaded my CTB files to the page setup manager. But when I plot to PDF all of my line weights are VERY heavy and illegible. I can't figure out how to fix this. When I look at the layers in model space, they are all set to DEFAULT. Not sure how to correct this. My new auto cad version is also saying that there is unsupported objects in the file. I'm not sure what this means or if it's related. If someone could please help, I would really appreciate it!! 🙂 Thank you!

Hi,

i suggest to check from PLOT dialog that your plot option Plot with plot styles is selected .

It is checked to plot to plot styles. Do you know what else it could be?  Thank you for your help!

In the plot dialog uncheck the Scale Lineweights box.

Always save a copy of the drawing before trying anything suggested here.
