Hi all, perhaps this is an easy one, but as I've stated in the past I am a newbie to SW.

I would like to know how to print the light grey dimension lines and the drawing border lines darker. I don't want to change the color altogether from the tools-options-colors menu, I want to keep them light grey on the drawing, but print out dark. I know this is not a printer setting issue because I have some customer SW drawings and they look light grey on the screen, yet print dark...whereas my drawings look light grey on the screen and also print very very light grey. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks again in advance...

From the Page Setup section, the print options can be set to use system settings or document settings.

I'm guessing the customer drawings use the document setting with the Black & White option.

Thanks a ton, that makes my life easier. I should've asked sooner, since all of my trial and errors resulted in the wasteful death of trees!
