I received a CAD drawing. Included on the CD with the drawing was a .ctb file for the color plot styles that are to be used when plotting the drawing. How do I assign the .ctb file to the CAD drawing so I can print the file?

I am using CAD 2005.

Thank you.

When you plot, expand the plot dialog (little round arrow at bottom right). Select the plot style (ctb) you have. If you can't see it. Open the Plot Style Manager in AutoCAD and drop the ctb in this folder. If you still can't see it when plotting, type in CONVERTPSTYLES at the command line.
