      Sure can.  It is similar to what we are using now other than ours has a mask/break in the line where the X is.  I attached a scan of the page out of the standards.  One of our CAD IT guys had a hard copy of the National CAD Standards, he said if he remembered right the manual was like $600!!

    Thanks for your reply.  I have found things similar to those, but everything I found has been regional or for a city.  We are semi happy with what we use now, just seeing if there is a standard for the US or maybe Texas.  As of right now we are using a continuous line with a single X equally spaced every so often.

  Guess I should say a United States National Surveyor Standard Line Types for Drafting.
