Plot Style for the Civil 3d layers

I am running Civil 3D.  When I start a drawing there are hundreds of layers.  Does Civil 3D provide a plot style .ctb file for these layers and the corresponding colors?

Not to be harsh, but No, you get to develop your own. It should only take several hours. /s

Ha!  Yes that is what I have done through the years.  But it occurred to me to ask.  Seems like Autodesk would provide a generic version of their own.

How is Autodesk supposed to know what line weights and colors everyone is going to use? It's up to the user to create a plot style table that matches whatever standard they need to use. Autodesk already provides generic CTBs out of the box, too.

Autodesk provides at several very generic ctb's and stb's.
