Question
what does ctb stands for, full form for ctb plot file extension

Answer
The acronym CTB stands for color-dependent plot style tables - its a setting where an object's color determines how it is plotted. So what is the advantage over the STB? Personally, i can assign brighter colors as my main/major object lines while darker ones as lighter/screened line types. This way, when dealing w/ numerous layers, the brighter colors will stand out more in your screen & will render same effect when plotted. Hope this helps.
