I am using AutoCAD 2002 LT and even though I have designated linetypes for certain lines, they don't show up when I go to print.
What am I doing wrong?

J,

Are the lines not printing or are they printing, but the linetype you want is not showing up?

If it is the first, check to make sure they are not on layer defpoints and that the layer is set to plot.

If it is the second, you may want to increase/decrease as the case may be the ltscale. If you are using multiple viewports of varying scale and would like all the linetypes to print out the same in each, use the psltscale.

Post back if you need further help.

In the layer control dialogue, check that the little printer icon is NOT with a red circle at your layers. It shoud be plottable.

Otherwise it's the linetype SCALE value. Search the help file for a detailed instruction on how tocahnge this.
