Can someone help? I'm trying to create a pen table and would like to set Manufacturing volumes and Quilts to Pen 8 and have those lines print as gray. What would the pen table look like for that option? I'm printing to PDF.
Right now I can only get those to print as their system color.
Thanks.

Hi,
I hope you know following dialog box
In pentable:
config.pro must contains following options:
use_8_plotter_pens yes
pen_table_file E:\users\creo4_parametric\pentable.pnt ... use your pentable
pdf_use_pentable YES
pentable must contain:
pen 8 thickness 0.035 cm; color 0.5 0.5 0.5; quilt_color; magenta_color

Thanks! That worked. I was using two other color codes for grey and it was printing as black. It was driving me crazy.
