The Model layout was written with the default page setup, whose "layout"
plot area is plot type 5, "Layout information" (DXF Reference, PLOTSETTINGS
group 74). That means nothing for model space: opened in AutoCAD 2027, a
drawing saved by CADCraft had a blank "What to plot", no preview and no scale
in the Plot dialog for Model. Model space now gets what PLOT does for it: the
drawing extents scaled to fit (74 = 1, 75 = 0). DWG saves go through the same
writer; the reader already ignores the Model layout's plot settings.

Layers and objects get a PlotStyle property (ByLayer/ByBlock/name) applied
through named tables (built-in default.stb and monochrome.stb, our own
definitions). DXF keeps the names in the ACAD_PLOTSTYLENAME dictionary of
ACDBPLACEHOLDER objects with group 390 on layers and objects; tables kept in
the drawing travel in a CADCRAFT_PLOTSTYLES XRECORD. PLOTSTYLE sets an object's
or the current (CPLOTSTYLE) style; STYLESMANAGER lists, creates, edits, deletes,
loads and saves tables in our own JSON format (docs/plot-styles.md). A Plot
Style Manager dialog edits a table's styles and the layout's table; the
Properties palette shows the current plot style and table.
