Transfer Project Standards > Object Styles still broken

[Wes Macaulay]

Not that we have to use this very often, except...

Most of our repro shops around town use Oce printers, and like us to send plots in to them via Reprodesk.

So, we set up our lineweights, do a check plot in-house, and then send out plot files using the Windows driver (not the HP one) for the DesignJet 750C, which uses an uncompressed version of HP/GL-2 which the Oce printers like, and which everyone can get.

For some reason, we have to crank up the lineweights when we send out via Reprodesk. (Fortunately, Reprodesk allows a preview of the plot.) If you set the lineweights up to work on your printers, they're too light when you send them out. Set them up for outside printing, and it's too heavy in-house.

Rather than adjusting the lineweight table (which wouldn't be too hard, really) it would be easier to just change the lineweights in Object Styles -- you'd have a template for in-house plotting and another for Reprodesk, and you'd just use TPS > Object Styles to jump back and forth.

Ergo my wish for this to be fixed.

Also, while discussing TPS and things that need fixing, I have a long standing request to fix the Transfer Project Info module. We (would) use this a lot for campus projects, where individual are in separate files.
