Darker format printing?

If you mean the weight of the lines in a drawing, you can go to Tools/Options/Document Properties/Line font and set the various objects to heavier. If that's not it, come back.

Oh, by the way, welcome to SolidWorks & this newsgroup. :-)

Thanks for the welcome. The Line font does not seem to list the linetype used in the format boarder & title box.

Also make sure you check your settings in

Try this. Open a drawing template. RMB and select edit sheet format. All the lines and text on the sheet should now be blue and selectable. Select all the lines you would like to make heavier. Now select the line thickness icon found on the line format toolbar. Select the thickness you would like and apply. Your selected lines should now be thicker. You can also change color and layer here if you like. RMB and select edit sheet. All the lines are now black and unselectable. At this point I would save this as a custom sheet format so all your drawings are like this. Print and adjust if necessary.

Thanks that did it. The boss well like it now.

Also make sure to change to Page Setup to print in Black and White and not Automatic or Color/Grayscale. That will make the lines black no matter how thick.
