Fill Style
If you assign a fill style, the fill style overrides the object's fill style at plot
time.
Pen#
Specifies a pen to use when plotting objects that use this plot style. Available
pens range from 1 to 32. If plot style color is set to Use Object Color, or you
are editing a plot style in a color-dependent plot style table, the value is set
to Automatic.
If you specify 0, the field updates to read Automatic. The program determines
the pen of the closest color to the object you are plotting using the information
specified as part of the plotter.
Virtual Pen#
Specifies a virtual pen number between 1 and 255. Many non-pen plotters
can simulate pen plotters using virtual pens. For many devices, you can
program the pen's width, fill pattern, end style, join style, and color/screening
from the front panel on the plotter.
Enter 0 or Automatic to specify that the program should make the virtual pen
assignment from the AutoCAD Color Index.
The virtual pen setting in a plot style is used only by non-pen plotters and
only if they are configured for virtual pens. If this is the case, all the other
style settings are ignored and only the virtual pen is used. If a non-pen plotter
is not configured for virtual pens, then the virtual and physical pen
information in the plot style is ignored and all the other settings are used.
