Where do I put my .ctb file?

    For ACAD2004, I put my .ctb file in:

    C:\Documents and Settings\myname\Application Data\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2004\R16.0\enu\Plot Styles

    However, when I go to plot it says it's missing. Is there anywhere else I need to copy this file to?

    Thanks,
    Eric

    In your current AutoCAD session (current profile)
    check Tools-> Options, files tab.
    Printer Support File Path -> Plot Style Table Search Path.
    that's where your AutoCAD is searching for your CTB files.

    Also you can do the following
    Command: (findfile "my.ctb")
    and AutoCAD will tell you where it has found "my.ctb"

    Er, no sorry this works for menu files etc, but not for CTB apprarantly...

    Eric,
    I am having the same problem. I have repathed to other folders on my server, yet when I go to plot I still get that the CTB is missing. Plot Style Manager when selected also goes correctly to the specified folder.

    Have you had any positive results since April 19th?
