Best set of illustrator lineweights for portfolio

batdinger

Need a good set of illustrator lineweights for drawings in my portfolio. thickest? thinnest?

Anybody have secret numbers they'd like to share...or at least what looks too thin/to thick.

thanks ahead of time.

when i was in school i worked on a "lineweight bible" i can't remember exactly but hopefully i can fish something up and send it your way. i think a lineweight bible would be a great handbook for everyone.

testprints??

I realize that's not the answer you're looking for, but it's often necessary..
Also, I find weights have to be altered slightly for pdfs meant for online/on the computer consumption and those sent off to the printer.
