Viewport Plotting only Black and White

[Anthony_Harman]

I am trying to get the viewports in paper space to plot in color instead of black and white to show the different layers and what each color represents. How do I get these colors to be seen when I publish a PDF set?

Hi,

Just plot!?

If your layout was set up by another one, perhaps there is a plotstyletable active..

Use PLOT command and disable the Plot withPlotstyle box.

Q: In Layout: Are objects in color, or all in black?

Are you using ctb or stb pen assignments?

If ctb where you assign certain colors to plot black with lineweights then you can select a different ctb that assigns all 255 colors

Hi @Anthony_Harman,

When you change plot thr styles is common for for the viewport not to update automacally. You can go into a viewport  and use the Regen comand. Have you tried this?
