    I am running acad2k and have opened an older drawing. when I select
    monochrome.stb i strill get the original colors. I know
    monochrome.ctb will work but i cant get it to appear on the list of
    available plot styles even though it shows up in the plot style
    editor. I am plotting on a deskjet with full color.

    In the monochrome.stb table, the plotstyle NORMAL is set to use the object
    color.
    To print black and white, use the layer manager and change the plotstyle for
    all the layers to something different than NORMAL.
    You must then of course make sure that the correct color (black) is set for
    these plotstyle .

    Ben.
    ps. Make also sure that 'plot with plotstyles' is selected in the page
    setup.
