The object rendering is controlled by setting up Renderstyles in the Renderstyle Library area and assigning them to layers in the Layers area of the settings file.

A Renderstyle is a group of rendering controls for objects.

In a Renderstyle, you can set rendering parameters such as screen percentage, line width and dash pattern.

Individual control is provided for the basic types of object: text, closed polyline, open polyline , circle, arc, solid, trace, line and point.

The Renderstyle information is saved in a Library file.

Many different Renderstyles can be set up within Cad Publisher.

Each individual Renderstyle can have its own unique name. The Renderstyle Library file has a .rsl extension.

The useful thing about Renderstyles is that you can assign any Renderstyle to any drawing layer or color.

This is done under the Rendering menu of the settings.

Changing the appearance of the rendered output can be as simple as re-assigning Renderstyles.

You can have as many Renderstyle Library files as you like.

Hint:
Take your time in setting up logical names for your Renderstyles and your Renderstyle will be in use for a long time.
