MIke,
I am using a drawing template of my own design and am wondering how to add color to my logo and plot the rest in mono.
Thank you,
Paul Mahoney

Make sure your logo colors are set to plot with a color pen, and the rest of the colors are set to monochrome. For example, I typically plot using CTB and colors 1-13 are set to plot as varying line weights of black. colors 14-249 are set to plot in their actual color. Colors 250-255 are set to plot in their actual color also, which happens to be shades of gray.

Hey Mike, thanks alot, now I’ll never get used to the blasted ribbon. Not now that I have my beloved pulldowns back. hehe. Actually I am trying to alias more tools so I can be less concerned with their next bright idea on changing the interface.
Great tip.

Of all the videoclips I’ve seen on this website, the audio of this one is not coming out right. It’s too low even when my speaker is at the maximum. I tried the other videoclips (same website) and they were all in good quality so I know that my computer is not the having a problem.
Anyway, the rest is alright. Thank you for your autocad tips Mike!
