CTB’s are customizable color tables used with AutoCAD. These tables allow specific lineweights to be applied to each color for desired plotting results (hard copy & electronic), including grayscale and color plotting. Since the publication of the 2011 DW CAD Standards in August of 2011, the (.ctb) file was revised to

2024年11月3日 · Plot styles are stored in Plot Style Table (CTB and STB) files, which apply predefined settings to each element in your drawing, ensuring consistent print output across different projects. This article provides an in-depth explanation of AutoCAD plot styles, comparing CTB and STB files and explaining how they impact the final print output.

CTB, or color-dependent, plot styles are settings for how the 256 available colors in AutoCAD will appear when you plot them, including the lineweight assigned to each color. When you use CTB styles, you are essentially adapting some or all of the colors 0 through 255 to meet your office standards for plotting.

2025年2月20日 · Objects in drawings plot color when using a black and white (monochrome) or grayscale Color-Dependent Plot Style Table (CTB) in AutoCAD. This occurs when plotting or publishing to PDF or paper. Can also be seen when previewing the plot.

2023年7月13日 · CTB files can plot in color, if they are set to do so. If the Color that is set for each pen in a CTB file is not set to Black , then you will either get the color specified, or, if Use object color is chosen, you will get the object color, which will only be Black for the Color 7 pen.

When it's time to plot your designs, we recommend using color-based (CTB) plotting styles. If you don't yet have a CTB style as your office standard, you might consider using our CTB style. To learn more about CTB styles, see our: Want to use our CTB style? Download this file:

2024年9月9日 · ctb文件是一种颜色表文件，它定义了在打印时如何将cad图纸中的颜色和线型映射到打印设备上。 通过编辑CTB文件，用户可以自定义打印输出的颜色和线型，使得图纸更加符合实际需求。

2003年9月4日 · Unless you are not currently drawing most [all!] items with color "ByLayer" - ie, you assign a specific color to each object and one layer may have objects with many different colors, you can quite easily change from a CTB to an STB, simply setting all objects plot styles to "ByLayer" and assigning the appropriate plot style to that layer.

2019年11月18日 · 打印样式可分为颜色相关打印样式表（*.CTB）和命名打印样式表（*.STB）两种模式。 颜色相关打印样式以对象的颜色为基础，共有255种颜色相关打印样式。 在颜色相关打印样式模式下，通过调整与对象颜色对应的打印样式可以控制所有具有同种颜色的对象的打印方式。 命名打印样式可以独立于对象的颜色使用。 使用这些打印样式表可以使图形中的每个对象以不同颜色打印，与对象本身的颜色无关。 颜色相关打印样式表以“.ctb”为文件扩展名保存，而命名打 …

2008年7月7日 · Color can equal lineweight and or line style in a CTB. Style can equal lineweight and or line style in a STB. If you take lineweight out of the CTB/STB, it makes it easier to handle.
