Here you will find everything you need to print the AutoCAD drawings sent to you.

Color Dependent Plot Styles:
  In a Color-Dependent Plot Style table you can specify the color, lineweight, linetype,
screening, and so on, that objects of a specific color will have when plotted. This produces
objective lineweights in the drawings.  (i.e. object lines plot darker than hidden lines)

Here are the plot styles used on our drawings:
Clicking on the filename will open the download file dialogue box,
asking you to open the file or save it to your computer.  Click 'Save'

Then just save the file to C:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2002\Plot Styles
or whatever version of AutoCAD you are currently using

11x17standard.ctb - used when plotting 11x17 sheets,

24x36standard.ctb - used when plotting 24x36 sheets, usually to be submitted for approval

This style isn't used on drawings we release, but its a good one to have:

MonoWeight.ctb - to be used with any size paper.  Will make all lineweights equal
