Set the Lineweight Scale for a Layout
You can scale lineweights proportionately in a layout with the plot scale.
Typically, lineweights specify the line width of plotted objects and are plotted
with the line width size regardless of the plot scale. Most often, you use the
default plot scale of 1:1 when plotting a layout. However, if you want to plot
an E-size layout that is scaled to fit on an A-size sheet of paper, for example,
you can specify lineweights to be scaled in proportion to the new plot scale.

Select a Plot Style Table for a Layout
A plot style table is a collection of plot styles assigned to a layout or model
space.
A plot style is an object property, similar to linetype and color. Therefore, it
can be assigned to an object or a layer and they control an object's plotted
properties.
If you select the Display Plot Styles option under Plot Style Table, the properties
of the plot styles assigned to objects are displayed in the selected layout.
