How to create an AutoCAD linetype
Create a custom text linetype and download a .LIN definition for AutoCAD. The export uses the Standard text style in your drawing.
Set the pattern
Enter your repeating text and a linetype name. Adjust text size, repeat spacing, and clearance using the live preview.
Download and load
Download the .LIN file to your CAD library folder. In AutoCAD, use LINETYPE → Load → File, select the file, and load your named linetype. Assign it to a line or layer.
Adjust the scale
Select a line and change Linetype scale in Properties to resize its pattern. LTSCALE changes the scale globally. Run REGENALL and check the result in your drawing layout.
