Hi, my ctb colours seem to select a lighter varient when plotted. For example, as you can see from the video, the colour 67 true colour is supposed to be 66,76,38, a dark shade of green. But when i confirm the colour and go back to select colour, its true colour is changed to a lighter shade, 131,14...

Too many problems for such a simple drawing...
C_Andruszko posted a topic in AutoCAD Drawing Management & Output
I'm familiar with creating assembly drawings in SolidWorks, but AutoCAD is a different animal. This layout looks hideous. Why won't my dashed lines and dimensions show in the second viewport? And even if they did, I don't think the annotative dimstyle is doing anything. And no matter what I do, the... -
Lineweights won't plot, I've tried EVERYTHING!
Sbeth85 posted a topic in AutoCAD 2D Drafting, Object Properties & Interface
Ok, maybe I haven't tried everything, but that's why I'm here asking your expert advice. ISSUE: I'm dealing with a 3rd party file. They have their own .ctb set up already (I'd prefer .stb, but I don't want to mess with their file). I can't get the lines to print in anything other than Default (w...- 6 replies

:cry:I use to work for a firm that taught me AutoCAD, I have since left and invested in 2013 version. When we plotted our drawings the line weights (especially on Elevations) showed great dimension. I have played around to death and just cant get a good CTB file created...... Could anyone share or s...

We have our CTB files (as well as our pmp and pc3) files on the network. With 2008 thru 2012, we have edited our profiles to point to these. In 2013, one C3D PC sees them fine. A second C3D PC and a LT PC see the lone STB file and no CTB's. It appears the pmp and pc3 files are seen, however. I di...

*.ctb vs *.stb: Which do you prefer, and why?
howitzer posted a topic in AutoCAD Drawing Management & Output
I have always used *.ctb files, and have always plotted by color. It just makes infinite sense to me. However, a recent client of mine used *.stb files, so I had to use them for the first time. I was pretty impressed with them, I'm surprised to say. You don't plot by color, unless I'm miss... -
I have received a ctb file from someone else and need to use it for my dwgs - but it does not appear in the plot style table roll down of the page set dialogue box? Other ctb files are visible. I have used stylesmanager to locate where to copy it in, and done so. I have tried the command CONVERTPSTY...

How to get a CTB colour to display on-screen as will plot
bjsmith77 posted a topic in AutoCAD Drawing Management & Output
Hi Guys, I've been using CTB files to manage line colours, thicknesses etc - assigning a specific colour number to a line colour/thickness etc. This results in great looking plots, but aren't the colours that appear on-screen. I was wondering how can I make it look exactly like what you'... -
This is probably a stupid question :geek:but recently my boss has been very picky as to the darkness of some lines and text on our drawings. Usually we just print what ever we get, but obviously our pen settings are different from many companies. A couple of times the contractors have sent us CTB fi...
