2012

Specifies the settings for the new plot style you are adding to the current plot
style table.
Color
Specifies the plotted color for an object. The default setting for plot style color
is Use Object Color. If you assign a plot style color, the color overrides the
object's color at plot time.
You can choose Select Color to display the
Select Color dialog box and select
one of the 255 AutoCAD Color Index (ACI) colors. The color you specify is
displayed in the plot style color list as Custom Color. If the plot device does
not support the color you specify, it plots the nearest available color or, in
the case of monochrome devices, black.
Enable Dithering
Enables dithering. A plotter uses dithering to approximate colors with dot
patterns, giving the impression of plotting more colors than available in the
AutoCAD Color Index (ACI). If the plotter does not support dithering, the
dithering setting is ignored.
Dithering is usually turned off in order to avoid false line typing that results
from dithering of thin vectors. Turning off dithering also makes dim colors
more visible. When you turn off dithering, the program maps colors to the
nearest color, resulting in a smaller range of colors when plotting.
Convert to Grayscale
Converts the object's colors to grayscale if the plotter supports grayscale. If
you clear Convert to Grayscale, the RGB values are used for object colors.
Dithering is available whether you use the object's color or assign a plot style
color.
Use Assigned Pen Number (Pen Plotters Only)
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
you provided under Physical Pen Characteristics in the Plotter Configuration
Editor.
