Are you missing some plot style tables?
Ever launch the plot dialog box only to find that your pen tables have taken a vacation? Does your selection window look like this graphic?
Are you sure that your pen tables are available? An easy solution to this should avoid typo-graphic errors. Can’t remember where they should be? No need to memorize that long 16 folder deep plot table location! Just let AutoCAD show you where it thinks your pen tables are located.
Drag the following lisp routine to on top of your AutoCAD window.

When the explorer window opens, look for your pen tables. If you don’t see them (as shown above), you can:
- Use the options dialog box to select a new location.
- Or drag the plot style table files (ctb or stb files) to the open explorer window.
- Or create a link to the correct folder in the current open explorer window.
