AutoCAD 2010 :: Plot Style Wizard Error

Jun 2, 2011

OK, since installing autocad 2012, and installing the office profile, which directs to a folder on our server to our plot style folder. Fairly typical medium office setup where settings come from an AutoCAD Settings folder, from support, fonts CUI etc etc.

There is the plot style wizard shortcut in this folder. In past releases this has been ignored, however now every time you open a new drawing we receive the error prompt, "The following shortcuts in the search were invalid and ignored" and then indicates the file path location. What's the deal?!

Now while i shouldn't have to, yes i have simply attempted to delete the shortcut in question but it showed up again.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Why Does Normal Plot Style Plot In Color

Oct 9, 2013

AutoCAD - Why does the Normal plot style plot in color? Black seems to make a lot more sense. Almost everyone in Architecture uses black prints most frequently so that should be the default. And you can't adjust Normal to all black. So what was AutoDesk's reasoning?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Missing Plot Style Table

Feb 6, 2012

Here's my problem:  I have a customized plot style table "SK.ctb".  I have it saved both in the appropriate folders on my computer and in a shared folder on the network.  Usually when I am working in a file and open the plot window, my plot table is available in the list at the upper right "Plot style table (pen assignments)".

Right now I am working in a drawing that was sent to me by another firm.  They of course didn't send me their pen assignment tables, not that I really care as I would rather edit the layer colors if necessary, but use my own.  The problem is that in the plot window it is only showing their plot styles - none of mine!  Theirs are all listed as missing, but I can't get it to even look for the plot tables I usually use.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Adding Plot Style Table Search Path

Mar 25, 2010

We have a person in the office that would like to create their own .ctb file that we would like to have them to access but they will also need to access our .ctb files (Standard). We currently restrict access to the .ctb files as they can be alterered leading to problems for everyone printing. Is there a way to create another path so they we can have a locked folder of .ctb files and an unlocked folder for .ctb files.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Publish Files In Black That Are In Named Plot Style Mode

May 31, 2013

I need to publish multiple files that are in the Named Plot Style Mode in Black and White instead of color.  Is there a way to do that in 2012?  In previous versions it wasn't a problem.  Short of opening every single file and doing the convertpstyles I can't seem to figure out a quick way to do it.  Is there an option somewhere that I can change to make the Publish use the Color Plot Style Mode so that it will recognize the monocrome.ctb file?

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Mac Doesn't Allow For Proper Printing On Their Plot Style Setting

Aug 29, 2013

I am a Mac user and new to AutoCAD. I am enrolled in a CAD class this semester and the instructor for my session is requiring Windows. Supposedly this is because AutoCAD for Mac does not allow for proper printing on their plot style setting. 

I understand that I can install Bootcamp and Windows on my computer, but I'd really like to avoid that if I can. If I were to do my work on my Mac and then digitally transfer my files to a PC for printing purposes, would my files become corrupted or compromised in any way?

AutoCad :: Cannot Plot With Color Dependent Plot Style

Nov 8, 2012

I am an experienced Autocad user, and plotted with ctb files. I installed 2013 and plots come out not as i want. Although i assigned a ctb plot style, lines come out according to an unknown plan to me. I attached the file. It seems that the lines are influenced by the ctb file, but some colors are fadded I found it. i had to assign the color black to all colors, since it plotted with colors, on the black and white plotter. But a new problem arose. now i don't see colors when i am in the layout, all lines are white!

AutoCAD 2010 :: Can't Remove Legend Font Style Or Table Style?

Nov 5, 2009

There is a font and table style called "Legend" that is automatically generating and can not be purged.

I have looked through all the start up files, all the lisp files and can't find anything that would be creating them!

They appear in any file I open, new or old and even if I open a template file.

I have attached a file that should be empty but you will (or should) see both a font and table style called "Legend".

(FYI I am running AutoCAD Civil 3D 2010 as AutoCAD 2010)

AutoCAD .NET :: How To Set Plot Style None

Jan 3, 2014

I am using a custom plot to pdf routine(Autocad 2012 x64); everything works ok, I can assign different plot styles but for some reason I cannot assign the "none" after I used a different ctb file. A snippet is bellow:

BlockTableRecord btr = (BlockTableRecord)tr.GetObject(spaceId, OpenMode.ForRead);
Layout lo = (Layout)tr.GetObject(btr.LayoutId, OpenMode.ForRead);
// We need a PlotInfo object linked to the layout

[Code]....

When trying to assign the "none", the code fails. I don't know what I am missing (if I am not wrong it used to work with Autocad 2010?)

AutoCad :: Assigning RGB To A Plot Style

Jul 7, 2011

Here's what I'm trying to do.

1. Create a layer that is Color 250.
2. Create a Plot Style that can have the true color 255,255,255 set.

It seems I can only use the 255 default AutoCAD index color palette. I would like to have some solid filled hatches to be the physical color 250 in the drawing, but I want these objects on a layer that plots the true color 255,255,255. The reason, is because I want to use these solid filled hatches as a mask. I'm not going to use that as an alternative.

I just don't want these solid filled hatches to be white. I can live with it, and it's working fantastic for the use I need but am just trying to see if this option is available.

Photoshop :: Error :: The Object Style Shape Style Is Not Currently Available

Oct 12, 2008

I have recorded an action to create a transparent image on a batch of photos. Next I ran the image processor using the File/Scripts/image processor. When running the action the error message occurs no matter how many ways I attempt to modify the action. Error: The object "Style "Shape Style"" is not currently available.

I then look in the action window to check and under the steps Make Fill Layer: Style: Shape, Style 1 appears but I can't delete it. This one error message makes it impossible for me to image process a batch of photos with a watermark on them.

AutoCAD LT :: Importing Different Plot Style Tables

Feb 21, 2005

I've plotted many drawings and I've always just taken it for granted that the plot style table that I typically use, monochrome.ctb, would be there to select in the plotting window. Usually, the drawings from my customer, have this option available to me in the plot style table when I get ready to plot. However, a few have come to me recently in which it was not available. Instead, the drawing had a monochrome.stb which does not plot out with a true monochrome appearance. I do not want this. I do not know how to get the monochrome.ctb style from my other drawings to work in my new drawings that only have monochrome.stb. I know very little about the different plot styles and how to modify them or import/export them. From what I gather by browsing this site is that you might be able to save plot styles to a folder in your computer and then import them to your drawing. Is this true? How I can get this monochrome.ctb to work in my drawings that only have monochrome.stb??

AutoCad :: Plot Style Fails When Exporting To PDF?

Oct 3, 2013

Essentially, I've got a bunch of extruded polylines - so, some 3-d shapes - that I'm viewing in a new layout/'viewport' (?), which is set to SW Isometric view in '2D wireframe' viewing style. I've got my lines in different colors, mapped to be all black but different line widths in a custom Plot Style .ctb file.

So, when I change the 'page setup' to "display plot style", everything seems fine. All the lines go black in the viewport, and it seems as though I've configured everything correctly. When I preview an export to .pdf, however - or actually export it - this is lost. The export comes out in color.

I've done exporting using both EXPORTPDF, and PLOT, in both cases making absolutely certain that the .ctb file is being linked correctly (with EXPORTPDF, I've done it both using the 'current' page settings, and also 'override'), and with the PLOT, using the DWG to PDF converter,

I've looked through EXPORTSETTINGS, EXPORT...

On the same computer, with another earlier, simpler file, I have no issues accomplishing what I want.

For additional information/to make things more annoying for me, at this stage, the previous file which DID work seemed to conserve layer information, and allowed me to edit individual lines later, if necessary... This colored "I don't care about your plot styles I'm not going B/W" file seems to just be a flat image.

I've compared the two files in two tabs extensively, and can't seem to find ANY other difference, in any of the settings...

PC running Windows 8, Autocad 2014, Adobe Reader XI. Tried both the DWG to PDF and Adobe PDF plugins to export to PDF...

AutoCad :: Plot Style Tables Missing?

Jul 27, 2006

I just completed a new drawing from scratch and I'm ready to plot. Problem is that the plot styles are missing. I tried opening another drawing to see if the plot style would show up, and it did. For some reason this new drawing is missing most of the plot styles.

Is there a way to load them into this new drawing? Also, is there a way to avoid having to load them everytime I create a new drawing?
