Using Projectwise integration for AutoCAD Products - Working with .ctb plot styles

Hello guys,

 

Am hoping there's someone here whose works with Projectwise (PW).

 

Our firm adopted it as the main CDE application and so far we a coping.

 

However, having completed my drafting, I would like to know how to integrate the AutoCAD .ctb plot styles in the PW environment. Can this be done? How would I go about it?

Have you looked for a Project Wise forum?

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

I have been over at the Bentley site, unfortunately I didn't get much there, still waiting for a response to my post there.

 

I had decided to try much luck here,

It will only work if there is a way to point to the folder of the plot styles in OPTIONS. Can you use a path like P:\Plot Styles or \\Server\Plot Styles to where they would be in Projectwise?

My bad guys.

 

I noted that my drawing layouts were referencing a none existent .ctb and this had completely thrown me off my understanding of how .ctb operates. 

 

PW does not control the .ctb files that are associated with the usual Autocad plotting/printing. These work the same way they would in any autocad based product.
