+======Faint Lines in Printing======
+=====Question=====
+When I print to the printer or plotter my lines are very faint.  How do I assign print widths to my Rhino model?
+=====Answer=====
+  * **Print widths** are available for 2-D objects like curves (line, circles, arc, freeform), hatch, text and dimensions.
+  * **Print widths** are __not__ available for 3-D objects like surfaces and polysurface.
+In Rhino, you can assign print widths in three ways:
+. Assign the **print width** to the layer.
+{{:plot_wieght01.png?600|}}
+. Assign the **print width** to the object property.
+{{:plot_wieght02.png?600|}}
+. Assign the default **print width** in the print dialog.
+{{:rhino:plot_wieght03.png?600|}}
+To view your **print width** before printing, use the PrintDisplay command, and set the State to **ON**.
+  Command: PrintDisplay
+  Print Display (Model Viewports) ( State=Off  Color=Print  Thickness=40 ): State
+  State <Off> ( On  Off  Toggle ): ON
+You can also toggle this from the right click menu.
