Monochrome printing in color

Hi,

I'm used to Autocad and recently switched to BricsCAD. I draw in color, using the main color only with sometimes some additional transparency.

Now, I print my drawings either monochrome or greyscale, never had an issue with Autocad, but I can't seem to be able to print monochrome. I copied the monochrome file from autocad but it's still in color.

Does anyone have a monochrome and greyscale plot style table that really prints monochrome and greyscale?

Thanks!

I should have one. That's what I do, draw in colors that map to lineweights, all in black except for special colors that map to color to indicate further work needed (used on check prints). I'll check and DM you when in the office.

Thanks,
I managed to get one roughly going but it's not yet perfect.

I use different colors for different items: foundations in black/white, walls in green, beams and columns in blue... I personally find it easier than to work on different layers most of the time...
