I have a huge mape of the city with several other layers which we xref a grid of smaller 11x17 sheets. The plot styles have been set up so that certain colors print out with certain linetype scales and linetypes. I have a layer, EASEMENTS, which has a dashed linetype and a thick linetype. When xrefed into most of the 11x17, this layer appears correctly when printed. . . however, in a few of the 11x17 sheets that were created later, the layer appears to have no thickness and no linetype assigned to it (continuous line). I have no idea why.
I already tried ltscale. Objects that printed with the correct line properties in the other 11x17 sheets will not print out normally in these files either.
I ended up solving the problem by going into the xrefed drawing and changing the properties of the EASEMENT objects from ByLayer to the specific linetype and color I wanted.
WHY won't it print out properly using ByLayer???
