Quick Reference

If you delete the mapping table, the plot style table becomes an ordinary plot style table and is no longer useful for applying plot styles to old drawings.

Named plot style tables that you create using CFG, PCP, or PC2 files have color mapping tables that are created from your previous pen mappings. Color-dependent plot style tables also have color mapping tables. Color mapping tables are used to map plot styles to colors and thus to objects of each color when opening pre- AutoCAD 2000 drawings. This enables you to simulate the way drawings were plotted in previous versions.

While the color mapping table exists, you cannot add, delete, or rename plot styles in that plot style table.

If you delete the mapping table, the plot style table becomes an ordinary plot style table and is no longer useful for applying plot styles to old drawings. It continues to be useful for new drawings.
