Standards/plotdrv/ is ; provided as a place for you to store customized .plt files. To ; simplify plotter selection from the Plot dialog, you may also ; elect to store frequently-used .plt files in Standards/plotdrv/ ; even if you do not customize them. ; ; To minimize the risk of losing your changes during a product ; reinstallation, do not edit the files in the System/plotdrv/ ; directory. Instead, copy the necessary files to Standards/plotdrv/ ; and edit them there. If the .plt file depends on other files, such ; as PostScript prolog (*.pro) files, copy them to the same directory. ; ;====================================================================== ; Required record, must precede any "pen" records. ; You may produce non-halftoned monochrome output on a color device by ; setting "num_pens = 1". num_pens = 17000 ; When thin vector elements with highly saturated colors are half-toned, ; they can be extraordinarily difficult to see.

By default, values are in plotter units (resolutions). ; Values determine pen down/up movements, where (14,42) for a dot ; pattern leaves the pen down for 14 units and up for 42 units.

Otherwise it will result ; in the inability to plot lines that have both weight and style.
