When an AutoCAD CTB plot style table is imported , the pen table automatically creates a pen map from the CTB file's color-to-width mappings. For typical CTB files, no element sections are created.

If the CTB file contains resymbolization not supported by the pen table's pen map feature, appropriate element sections are created. Pen maps cannot be created from STB files. If an STB file is imported , element sections are created.
