Scale Lineweights

This option is only enabled when the Generate separate drawing option is selected, as it only applies when the plot generate output is a DR4 drawing.
Selecting this option if you want lineweights in the generated output DR4 drawing to be scaled to match the scaling of the drawing geometry. Deselect this option if you want lineweights in the generated output DR4 drawing to retain their width "on paper".

If you need to scale lineweights in an existing drawing, you can use the script "Scalelineweights.a4s".
