A plot style table is
a collection of plot styles assigned to a layout or the Model tab.
A
plot style is an object property, similar to linetype and color.
Therefore, it can be assigned to an object or a layer and they control
an object's plotted properties.
If you select the Display Plot Styles option
under Plot Style Table (Pen Assignments), the properties of the
plot styles assigned to objects are displayed in the selected layout.
