I'm creating a template for use by AutoCAD LT users and I want to use my Civil 3D one as a basis but ensuring I've deleted all the Civil 3D styles etc etc.
I've run the Manage > Purge Styles and there are no unused styles but there is a Cut grading style and Fill grading style still showing in the Prospector tree as well as Plot Styles and I can't work out how to remove these. There are also a load of layers that I can't delete presumably because they are still associated with a Style somewhere
Anyone got any suggestions as to how I can clean out all the Civil 3D detritus?

Hi @neilyj666. What about starting with just the acad.dwt and importing everything from there? Not sure how much info you've got, but I can imagine it's easier to import acad info rather than removing c3d info.
@v-silvestre I'm rapidly coming to this conclusion...😊

Does _ExportToAutoCAD not work for you? This will strip the file clean of all vestiges of Civil 3D styles. Objects will be lines, arcs and polylines. Mtext instead of Labels.
If you open the file in Civil 3D, all styles will be Standard.
