HI, I am using the Autocad 2013 educational version. I have a drawing with a .ctb file. When i print, it is printing with the lines in colour. I would like the lines to print in black or grey. I assume I need to change the plotstyle to a monochrome.ctb plot style, but cannot work out how to change the plot style. Is the plot style changed in the model or paper space of the drawing, or in the print menu? - I have looked extensively under File/ print and can find nowhere to change a plot style. - under File/ plot styles I can select from a list of .ctb files - but it only allows me to edit them - not apply them to the drawing. - In the drawing under the properties inspector i can see a plot style menu and it is currently showing the option ' bycolour' when I click on the pull down options menu, there are no other options. There is also a 'plot table type; but it says this is ' not available' -When i type plot styles in the drawing it brings up a bring s up an edit plotstyle table window, and this has a pull down menu that displays arrange of plot styles , but when I select one it only allows me to edit the plot style table and save and close. It does not actually apply it to the drawing. Is my problem that i am using an educational version, or am I missing something? Thanks for any help you can give!
