I'm working with Autocad LT 2009 (no Express tools) on a group of drawings and some of the text is bold, other is not. Also, some of the lines. When I turn on the bold lineweight viewer I can see them and they plot in bold. I have looked in the layer manager and made sure all lineweights are either Default or .005 and it makes no difference. The title block has some of the text is bold but the attributes don't show it.

How can I change all lines and text to be plain, not bold both on the screen and in the plot?
Thanks

Those objects don't have their line weight set to "By Layer" but have them set individually. Change them to "By Layer".
 
Thanks. I'll do that.

Not sure if you every solved this issue, but if not then read on:

The Bolding issue your having with text may be result of the Z location of the text, highlight all text with a bold and bring the property window up, for X and Y Coordinates youll get whatever, but for the Z coordinate hit 0, and it should fix your problem :)
