Document Properties - Line Thickness

You can set the line weights in an active document that work best with your printer or plotter. These settings are saved for all open SOLIDWORKS documents. Available for drawings only.

See additional information about line thickness (external link to MySolidWorks.com).

To set line thickness:

  1. In a drawing, click Tools > Options > Document Properties > Line Thickness.
  2. In the dialog box, under Line thickness print settings, enter a value for the line weights (Thin, Normal, Thick, and five additional line thickness settings).
    If you use specific Line Thickness values in a SOLIDWORKS drawing, the lines print according to the settings in Document Properties - Line Thickness.
  3. Click OK.
