Using layers as line weights

[murphymoon007]

I'm using the student version of AutoCad 2013. I only use it for basic floor plans, elevations, and custom furniture. Line weights are critical to my drawing quality. I've assigned different line weights to different layers; this is the only way I know of to differentiate between line weights. But I can't get the line weights to display at all in Paper Space or when printed.

Just a note, You do know that you are not suppose to use the educational version for commercial use?  Correct?  Unless Autodesk has changed their view on this.

My suggestion if you are doing this is buy the LT license.  Since what you are doing can easily be done in that package of AutoCAD.
