6 months of tiny layer tweaks finally paid off today

I've been fighting with my line weights looking all wrong on my construction details. Turned out I had my plot style table set to monochrome instead of grayscale the whole time. Switched it today and my boss actually said 'hey that looks clean' for once. Anyone else have a dumb setting that wrecked their prints for way too long?

Wait is plot style table really that common of a mistake? I swear I spent like four months wondering why my hatch patterns looked all blown out on screen versus paper. Turns out I had some weird PDF export setting that was doubling up on line weights for no reason. It was literally just a checkbox I had never looked at because I figured default settings were fine. The worst part is I even complained to my coworkers about it and nobody thought to ask how I was exporting.

Plot style tables are basically witchcraft dressed as a dropdown menu.
