Line weights

[Howard Kaplan]

Just wondering what you all think of line weights when it comes to leaders
and text?
I have a difference of opinion here in my office:
Should the leader have the same line weight as proposed text?
or should the leader be a thinner line weight than proposed text?

Thanks,

Dim text and leader text should always be in a thicker pen.
They always have been, going way back pre Cad days.

My vote is for finer leaders.

The leader should not be mistaken for any line work below or near it.

I use thinner leader and dim lines than text. its a typical drawing standard

I too use thiner leaders than text. Leaders on same layer as text/symbol
notation they are referenced to.
