Lineweights on drawings in WF 2.0

I'm trying to print some drawings that have isometric views in WF 2.0. The lineweights (thicknesses) are so thick, that some of my views look like a big smuge. There was a way to do it in Pro 2001 and in Prodesktop8 by clicking on the views and selecting "thick of thin". Is this possible in WF 2.0? Thanks.
 
Use this config option:

pen_table_file full_path/pentablefile.pnt


Here is a sample pentable file:

!Pro/E geometry lines are white on the screen, plot with broad pen (0.250mm)
!
pen 2 thickness .025 cm; drawing_color attention_color
!
!Everything else plots with fine pen (0.125mm)
!
pen 1 thickness .0125 cm; half_tone_color
pen 3 thickness .0125 cm; dimmed_color
pen 4 thickness .0125 cm; edge_highlite_color
pen 5 thickness .0125 cm; letter_color
pen 6 thickness .0125 cm; highlite_color
pen 7 thickness .0125 cm; magenta_color
pen 8 thickness .0125 cm; section_color
