    Question Revit Project to dwg vs. plotting

    I am looking for a .ctb file to use once a Revit Project has been exported to DWG. Is it one of the out of the box autocad .ctb pen settings? Which of course here at my new place of employment have all been customized out of the options. Thanks!

    What's that exported DWG's plot style set to when you attempt to plot it? If it cannot find the ctb it may simply be set to plot using an stb file or vice versa. When you try to select another plot style in the dialog box are the one's displayed ctb's or stb's? Nobody outside your new place can help you with your company's plot styles. Typically a company named Acme may create a customized plot style called Acme.ctb or Acme.stb. It's not a good idea to customize an OOTB plot style like acad.ctb or acad.stb as nobody outside your office would be able to plot the drawings and they wouldn't be able to plot ones from outside their office. What makes you sure they've been modified?
