Change thickness of layout grid lines

Is there a way I can change the thickness of the lines in the layout grid?

 

I'm exporting a PDF with the layout grid included (so that I can then use it as a guide in After Effects). But the lines show up as quite faint when I import into AE

You could use step and repeat to create a grid using a stroke of any color and weight.

Hi @mttplbkp ,

the other thing you could try is to change the thickness of layout grid lines in Acrobat Pro.

When in Acrobat Pro:

 

Print Production > Preflight > Acrobat ProDC 2015 Profiles > Single Fix Up > Page contents >

Set minimum line width to 0.14 pt

 

Duplicate that profile and edit it to your needs.
