A few rules I like to follow when plotting out consultant sheets are as follows: 1) Plot out pdf's in color when layed out in Plotmaker/Layout Book (so that line weights come through) and 2) Plot out plt's from plotflow (open directly with plotflow by right clicking and use "open with" - MAC and PC have this option - this option alone saves you time from having to lay it out in your layout book, so if you can ask your consultants to send you plt's along with the pdf's, do so)
Note: These rules of course are settings used based on a particular HP DesignJet Plotter... so it may work differently on other brands and/or models.
